New modern pickups

[peterc52]

I’m in the mood for a new set of pickups. In the modern vein.

Any suggestions?

Was thinking about the BKP Juggernaut. Kev uses them and always sounds great

Yes!

And possibly with the tone pot disconnected.

Auroratone pickups in Canada makes some wild stuff too if you're feeling adventurous.

I’ve used actives forever. The lundgrens are the only passive pickup I’ve tried that I’d actually use.

The BKP Juggs are the most unique sounding pickups I've ever tried. There's nothing else like them. I hated it more than I liked it. The chugs are brutal sounding but have no heft and sound hollow in a way. They djent but thats about all they are good for. The cleans were good especially in split coil. I'd stay away from them. The EMG Jim Root set are a decent modern set to try. Vocal and aggressive sounding but uber compressed.

Why? Do they replicate some of the qualities you like about actives?

Deciding between the Rails and a regular BW for a new build. Please, elaborate on your impressions.

They are tight, and no saggy flubby bottom. Cut great. Couldn’t stand any BKPs I tried….
