Title: Black pole pieces and slugs
Post by: Davey on August 06, 2005, 09:55:20 PM: In the gallery, i see you can add both onto a humbucker.

i was wondering if there is any upcharge for having a black open poled miracle man with black slugs and black pole pieces.

and if it's possible to say when silk screening will be available, cos i'd like the bucker to have a small BKP logo in silver on the lower right (like where the dimarzio ones have the logo)

i'm asking, cos i gave Laz the go on the guitar and i'd like to have this sorted before he starts the assembly (still at least a month and a half away, but better safe than sorry they say)

We don’t plan on having silk screen printing on our pickups, we prefer the appearance plain. We've already been accused of copying SD and don’t want to give them something else to complain about!

once i ordered something, thought it'll be like i wanted, got something diferent
the 2nd time i ordered like i wanted and the upcharge was almost 75% of what i paid...

No, because the poles on single coils are actually magnetic rod!

You would get the same appearance with a black plastic cover and normal pole pieces.
