Covers:
Chrome, nickel, gold, plastic (black like EMG).

Bobbins:
Double black (standard), zebra, reverse zebra, double creme, double white, black/white, reverse black/white

Poles:
Nickel and black pole pieces, gold and black pole pieces

Spacings:
Tunomatic, Tremolo, and neck spacings
Seven string bridge, seven string neck spacings. (no covers for seven string pickups, standard double black only)


That's 37 different ways you can have a Nunchucker Humbucker  (all the other pickup models too) :headbang:

You can also choose one of four different magnets, but technically we change the name then for some (Alnico II = TVH bridge and PVH neck). Alnico IV magnets are recommended, despite what Simon H will come in here and tell you  :raspberry:

Vintage Gain:

Nunchuckers are used by:
Chaos Divine
Combined Death Toll
Psychonaut x2
Graham Greene (Reasonant Project and Jac Dalton band)
Psycroptic (soon!)
Gasoline Inc
Hyte
Dogs of War (soon!)
Grotesque
Sins of the Father
Vespers Descent
...and many more

Ha Im not sure about the schecters as my chukka is in a telecaster i put together...

Ive got a blackjack flying V and 3x  006's. (deluxe, blackjack and elite)
Um I mainly used my 006 elite as it had the duncan designed single coil and humbucker got some nice sounds with the engl with that combo.
Theres splashed of other guitars, the flying V has the duncan blackouts which are pretty wild, still a bit sterile for what i like but they cut through something fierce. Um theres also an ESP 7 string, Ibanez Iceman of course  :P thats all i can remember for now..

Im planning on getting a chukka for the 006 elite and something nice for the single coil...mmm

I will give you  :raspberry: in a minute  :D

The Nunchucker & Hot Rock are both awesome pickups.
I am just a picky & fickle cunt.  ;D No matter how good something sounds I am always on the hunt to make it sound better.
Hence my interest in having my studio speakers floating on neo dynamic magnets so there is no physical contact with the studio  :P
