Starting with the Acoustic channel and working our way up to HIGH GAIN RIFFS AND SHRED (And some Synth-Oct Madness) with Bare Knuckle Polymath pickups!

The guitar is a Kiesel Zeus which previously had Tosin Abasi, and Tim Henson Fishman Fluence pickups, among others.
My latest track 'Some Guys Got It..' using McRocklin Suite 1.6 and HyperTune Plugin • 'Some Guys Got It' Playthrough | McRo...
McRocklin Suite is a collection of all world-class guitar tones at your fingertips.
From insane leads, gorgeous cleans, to crushing riffs, the McRocklin Suite does it all with ease.

Sure, I've tried random guitars over the years with BN Pickups, but never in my own guitars using my tones.. what's your thoughts?
-
Oh Man the splits plus synthoct AND Hypertune!!!! Dank!
-
Always love your demos, Thomas- the patches & bits you play truly showcase the depth & capacities of the sounds you can have fun with.
-
They really do sound amazing! And I can't express how awesome it is to see the OG back in action! These definitely come with a hefty price tag, but you could make a solid argument that pickups could very well be the most important piece to a guitar.
-
They look amazing in the OG Zeus but they sound phenomenal. A really nice clarity to them.
-
I have a set of Bare Knuckle Aftermath's in my Ibanez, and they sound absolutely fantastic. They're perfect for heavier styles of music, but they are so freakin versatile that I can legitimately use them for any genre. The split coil sounds are honestly just as nice.
-
Much Love Mcrocklin!!
-
That guitar is sooo legendary!! I rewatch the Namm 2020 performances all the time and you were absolutely on your “A game” for those sets!!! Great to see “the OG” back in action and sounding so so good!!!
-
These sound great! Also thanks for putting close up of settings on screen, love that you do that. Makes it a lot easier to understand what you're using and to find it. Love the OG Zeus, that was my first Kiesel too!
-

-
Sounds incredible mate. These have been on my list. Congrats.
-
They sound amazing - I think you would make any pickups sound great though!
-
Sounds awesome! good to see you shredding again Thomas! 💜
-
Sound is Amazing 🔥🤘
-
Yeah your finger tone through those bare knuckle pickups sound amazing...Question does anyone not have this plugin...? Just for that HYPERTUNE knob alone its worth $1000's and your latency numbers alone are game changing...the best of the best
-
Amazing like always, young man!!
-
Duuude so happy you got these! Truly one of the best pickup sets ever; Totally would suggest getting a parallel switch involved somehow; the parallel neck is one of the best, most unique sounding cleans Ive ever played; Very P90 esque; Great playing as always and welcome to the dark side 😈
