Good choice mate, I think you'll like em' :)

The Black Dog in the bridge of my Gordon Smith improved it's tone no end over other pickups I'd tried in that guitar. It's 'mid range snarl' gives it quite an aggressive edge at times, but it's still very PAF in character :)

Let us know how you get on with them :)

Oh god, I SOOOOOO love the Black Dog's in my Tokai Love Rock. They sing, especially when I have my JCM800 cranked!

Great choice rinse_master! ;)

nice choice

let us know what you think of them, less people have the black dogs than some of the other pickups.

You'll be glad to know that we wound them today, they will be dispatched on Wednesday. Didn't reealise it was you!

They were my fav until Tim made the VHII. The midrange grunt sounds great in lighter bodied guitars like PRSs

Wednesday, nice! My guitar just doesn't look right without pickups  :roll:  

I'm sure I put a note on the order form, I know I at least was going to!?

Of course I will let you know what I think and if the PC is up to it, maybe do a couple of mediocre clips  :)

Got them, just haven't got them in yet, I need to slightyly grind off the corners of the mounting legs (literally like 1/2 mm), they look nice though  :D

Thanks for the strings and pick too, I like tortoiseshell picks  8)

OK, another update...

They are in, although not wired up, I am waiting on some push/pull pots and since I'm doing 12hr nightshifts this week I haven't had time to do anything anyway (go to work, sleep, eat, got to work......)

Expect some first impressions sometime around monday afternoon.
