Title: SG With BK's Pic Request
Post by: Lazy_McDoesnothing on December 13, 2007, 06:57:39 AM
Does anybody have a pic of camo or black warpigs or camo or black nailbombs in a heritage cherry SG standard?  I'm debating camo, black open, or chrome covered and i'm not sure how it'll look.  If anybody has a pic that would be great.  Otherwise is anybody real good at photoshop?  :D

I wouldnt say I'm amazing at photoshop, but probably good enough to give you a general idea of how it'll look. Send me a photo of your SG and I'll try :)

Thanks for all the replies first of all; much appreciated.  Some of those pics just don't quite get it right so I added a few pics of my guitar.  _tom_ that's good work but they're kind of small and the color is off(sorry I'm picky) so if you would be so kind, could you work your magic again please?  :D

I've always wanted to do this so since I had the camera out anyway I took a few family photos. I never really noticed before I put them all together but I kinda got a red, white, and blue thing going don't I?

It's a Takamine EG531C.
Got it off ebay for $127 because everybody needs at least one acoustic to mess around on.  It actually plays real nice.

And the black one on the right is my first guitar a cheap yamaha.

Still not the best job but looks a bit more realistic than the last one I hope!

That's perfect!  Thanks tom, big help!

I think I'm leaning towards the black now, maybe a black c-pig with black allens.  What do you guys think?

I like black covers. I have them in my LP with gold polepieces to match the hardware:

Maybe getting silver polepieces in the pig would look good?

To me that looks too much like all the other stock black pickups I see on so many guitars.  I think I might like the black allens better and change the hardware out to black later on.

maybe either of these:

You see?  That's the thing I hate the most about BKP's, there's just so many GREAT options whether it's tone or appearance I can't decide!  Tim should be ashamed of himself!  :P

i like the camo myself, then you could switch the hardware to distressed nickel to sort of play off the camo effect!  :twisted:

My mistake - I meant to say Rosewood , but was having one of those 'middle aged bloke' moments...  :oops:

It could have been a Freudian slip though, like when you say one thing but mean aMother...
