Members colejustesen Posted May 15, 2010 Members Share Posted May 15, 2010 So this might be old news, but have any of you heard of these pickups that Bareknuckle has developed for Mansons guitars? Mansons Guitars & Bareknuckle pickups They seem pretty cool.....aesthetically they remind me of Rio Grande's Crunchbox and Punchbox. Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nolly Posted May 15, 2010 Members Share Posted May 15, 2010 They're really new - I don't think anyone has tried them yet! If you go over to the Bareknuckle forum, you'll find a couple of threads of speculation about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dead Star Posted May 15, 2010 Members Share Posted May 15, 2010 They were made for Matthew Bellamy. I like the way he uses them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing Matt may try out these MBK-3s, but I don't think they were developed for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't, I'm going to fire my publicist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really blame her though. She doesn't even play guitar. It was sweet of her to tell me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members colejustesen Posted May 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted May 15, 2010 I thought Matt Bellemy used the Rio Grande Crunchbox and Punchbox........I know that any artist can change what they use at any given moment.......so I am not surprised that he would try stuff from BK, since their reputation is considered some of the best.

Cole Hmm, I don't think he's used the Rio Grandes for a long time. The original MBK1 and 2 pickups have been around for a few years now, it's only this MBK3 that is new.Matt also uses slightly customised Nailbombs and Mississippi Queens.

Members TruSlice Posted May 16, 2010 Members Share Posted May 16, 2010 Bellamy's P90 tone always sounded superior to his bukcer toans, IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
