Bareknuckle Sinner - anyone use these?

[MontyW]

Anyone on here use the BKP Sinner (bridge) - I'm thinking of putting one in ESP Vintage to go with the Trilogy Suite mid and neck I already have.

Any thoughts/comments on the Sinner, especially how quiet it is as I guess its not exactly noise canceling and can it cmpete with say a Dimarzio Fast Track 2?

My other though was to ditch the Trilogies and go all our Dimarzio Fast Track 2 (bridge) and Choppers (mid and neck) for some heavy metal tones.

Any thoughts?

The Sinner is a crazy heavy pickup. It doesn't really sound like a single at all. Lots of bass, slightly subdued midrange and decent highs. When I was tracking with the thing, if you told me it was a humbucker, I would have believed you. That said, it'll still hum like a single; it's the nature of the beast. It can compete with a Fast Track 2 in terms of output, but they're two different tones overall. Those DiMarzios you're looking at are very cool as well. Either should be fine for metal.

Thanks - very helpful. Going to give the Sinner a go!
