Title: What BKP pickups does Gary Moore install on his Les Paul?
Post by: AsherHoe on October 04, 2009, 02:03:07 PM
I heard that Gary Moore installs BKP pickups on his Les Paul. I'm a huge Gary Moore fan ( make that VERY HUGE!) and I want to get that kinda Gary Moore Still Got The Blues, Jumping at Shadow sound on my Les Paul Black Beauty. I'm considering the mules for that kinda sound but am keeping my fingers crossed until I received some replies. If anyone knows what BKP pickups Gary installed on his Les Paul, please let me know, I'll be gladful.

I know he got a set of PG Blues installed in one of his les pauls. Ive got them installed too and they do a great Gary Moore type of sound. I also Belive Tim rewound some of Gary's Strats

Hey thanks for the info man, actually I just found out he uses PG Blues pickup too. Man I didn't know "PG" stands for Peter Green, it's embarrassing, I should have done my homework first before asking such a noob question...anyway once again thanks man!

no worries, i found out that stuff when i emailed Tim and he told me the stuff hes done for Gary. I must say im a huge GM fan myself, If you decide to use the PG blues set try them with a TS808/9 or Maxxxon pedals as they areally give the pickups a kick.
