The Gravity Storm BK is a beast in the neck position, delivering serious power and clarity. It’s a great choice for players needing a high-output humbucker with a modern edge—think modern rock, metal, and heavier rhythm work. Just be prepared to tweak your amp to tame the high end if you’re after a warmer, vintage vibe.
