The Polymath set is Bare Knuckle’s attempt at a versatile, modern humbucker – and they’ve nailed it. The bridge is aggressive without being harsh, and the neck is wonderfully warm and clear, making this a great choice for players who need a pickup that can handle everything from soaring leads to chunky rhythm. It's a premium-priced upgrade that’ll really elevate your tone.
