Best of the Hallowe'en Limited Editions
Embrace your chance to own a slice of Bare Knuckle History. Become one of a handful of people to own a Bare Knuckle Limited Edition set!
We only create a small run of two or three sets, traditionally handwound as always, and they are all in stock and ready for immediate dispatch. But hurry, when the limited editions are gone - they’re gone! This week we embrace the spooky with our Hallowe'en picks, which are so good they can be used all year round!
First up we have this Nailbomb black and red fury skull humbucker set. The Nailbomb humbucker is the perfect synergy of old-school and modern rock tones in a high output humbucker. From hot, fat blues rock through to aggressive thrash, the Nailbomb explodes with a strong and commanding voice. Contemporary players will take advantage of the full bore reaction of the pickup on full tilt; older school players will enjoy the range of classic tones and response using the volume pot to clean up.
Here we have the Aftermath humbucker set with a red drip over nickel covers. The Aftermath is perfect for the modern metal guitarist, with accelerated bass response for exceptionally fast tracking of high-speed staccato riffing. It has a crushing mid range and precise high-end articulation.
This Rabea Massaad Silo humbucker has been etched with a fury skull over a black battleworn finish.
The ‘Silo’ humbuckers define Rabea Massaad’s standing as a revered guitarist, music producer and performer, translating his immediately recognisable finger tone and phrasing.
"I need a pickup with the ability to create glassy, ambient leads and warm, clear chord tones. Equally I need it to sound crushingly heavy and aggressive.
The Silo humbuckers give me everything I need and more. I couldn’t be happier." Rabea
Twin screw coils, Alnico V magnets and a pairing of 44AWG wound bridge and 42AWG wound neck all combine into an incredible range of depth and output.
Rabea is renowned for the clarity in his guitar tones and the precision in his playing, whether it be textural ambient soundscapes or saturated driven breakdowns.
This Misha Mansoor Ragnarok 6 string humbucker set, with 53mm bridge spacing, with black bobbins, custom white bolts with skull etch and 4-conductor wiring. The Ragnarok is a chunky, fat sounding pickup that’s also devastatingly tight and aggressive; a hot ceramic pickup with a smooth top end and incredible clarity.
Here we have a custom Mike Stringer signature Halcyon 7 string humbucker set in open coil spec with orange blades and custom etched orange baseplates, with custom pumpkin etched bobbins. Halcyon humbuckers were born out of an intense R&D session with Mike Stringer, Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood and Tim Mills during a stopover in the UK on Mike’s intense Spiritbox touring schedule. The brief was to create a humbucker set designed primarily for 7 string guitars tuned down to F# and to embrace not only Mike’s massive driven tone, but also his unique approach to using bridge and neck pickups together for his clean tones.
And finally unleash the power of the Aftermath humbucker with a striking new look, crafted by our in-house artist, Dan Abrahams. Dan continuously pushes the boundaries of what's possible with pickup custom finishes, bringing you a truly unique and modern aesthetic for your Bare Knuckles.
Introducing the Red Crackle Finish with Black Bolts—a bold, volcanic-inspired design that perfectly complements the intense character of the Aftermath humbucker. The fiery red crackle effect, contrasted with black bolts, makes this special edition set not just a pickup, but a work of art.
