Title: I think I have a warpig without a cover?
Post by: DonP on March 06, 2009, 12:32:06 AM

It has double rows of allen heads.

One coil measures 11.8K. The other 11.3K. = 23.1K

Never had a cover. No solder and tape on the edge of the baseplate.

This came with a guitar I bought.

Nice bonus I guess?

I hate to ask the obvious, but does it have 'bare knuckle' engraved on the bottom? Just because it has allen heads and is 23k doesnt make it a pig. Might be, there are plenty of uncovered pigs, but might not too.

+1

But if it is a BKP, then it's almost certainly a 'pig.

There are plenty of uncovered 'pigs around - despite what the product page says, they can be made covered or uncovered with all sorts of colors/styles.  AFAIK they can be made with double screws (I had one once), flush allen poles, raised allen poles, cap head allen poles...
