Passive EMG

Bare Knuckle Pickups Miracle ManPublished on 04/12/11 at 20:30
The Bare Knuckle Pickups Miracle Man is part of their contemporary humbucker line. It’s an extremely high output pickup meant to replicate famous active pickups such as EMGs. Like all BKPs, this humbucker comes with a plethora of options to choose from. Mine was a bridge position humbucker with a ceramic magnet and four conductor wiring.

The Miracle Man is pretty much modeled after that Zakk Wylde Ozzy Osbourne kinda tone. It has probably the tightest bass out of all of the BKPs that Tim offers. It’s crazy tight. The midrange is scooped a touch to allow for the treble to really shine through. This pickup’s treble is crisp, but it’s never too overbearing to where it gets...…

The Miracle Man is pretty much modeled after that Zakk Wylde Ozzy Osbourne kinda tone. It has probably the tightest bass out of all of the BKPs that Tim offers. It’s crazy tight. The midrange is scooped a touch to allow for the treble to really shine through. This pickup’s treble is crisp, but it’s never too overbearing to where it gets ridiculously icepicky.

However, just because it’s a super high output pickup doesn’t mean it’s a compressed mess of notes. The Miracle Man is extremely clear and open. When you play chords under high gain, you can hear every little note. Single notes really jump out at you as well. Harmonics on this pickup are crazy as well. It really reminds me of EMGs once you start slamming those pinch harmonics. I never got to try this pickup in split or parallel modes, so I can’t comment on that.

The Miracle Man seems to be best suited for woods like mahogany or other neutral to darker woods due to the treble. If you aren’t careful, there could be a touch too much treble with this pickup. Actually, I think it sounds absolutely phenomenal with basswood bodies.

If you’re looking for a high output pickup with superb harmonics, extremely tight bass and a powerful punch, check out this pickup. Imagine a tighter Painkiller but a little less raw and without the overly powerful midrange, and you’ll come close to what this pickup has to offer.

Set on a Dean V black / Gold easel, this microphone is close to the holy grail I wanted.
Plugged into my engl fireball, I feel that the micro transcribes the wood species of the guitar. This is a distortion biting and very hot that spring (it's really this heat I could not find anywhere to DiMarzio, Seymour Duncan, and others, that strikes at the time). On the menu: palms to go go mute, harmonics, chrirurgicale precision ... we feel that my guitar launches reliefs howl so she was restrained with other mics I had associated with it.
This is controlled directly on the site of bare knuckle, control treated mister Tim Mills in person and arrived in 10 days.
I do not regret this...…

I do not regret this purchase (in the amount of 128 euros fdp included!).
I would buy the same micro for my esp viper 301 !!!

So now, I'm a fan.

Good for 80's metal

Bare Knuckle Pickups Miracle ManPublished on 11/14/14 at 14:50

I kept two weeks, it seemed near the EMG 81, scooped but in the end it does not really like him.
Not as sharp, slightly less gain and bass.
As noted on the Bare Knuckle website it matches the metal bands of the 80s, the Slayer, Megadeth etc ... No modern for a penny, in the color I mean.
Even if I did not like it still keeps the dough BK, warm sound, accurate and quality.
I put no rating because it is a matter of taste, not quality.
