Nice interview...

Especially this one:
(in answer to "A DeLorean Time Machine has just pulled up outside the Bare Knuckle Pickups office. Where would you like to go on the BKP timeline? Would you go back to rectify any mistakes, stay where you are or take a sneak peek in the future?")

"Stay where we are – the past is history and we’ve learnt from that and the future is based on our actions today. I’m enjoying today."

Good answer Tim! :D

I'd ignore the BKP timeline and go back to the Seventies!

But yes, good interview, I enjoyed reading that!  :D

Has anyone else noticed that the shop looks really tidy and smart even though its missing product images?

They should really tie the rest of the site in with this design its very clean.

what about these new straps? we need images!!

the top 4 pickups are interesting (didn't expect to see the stormy monday in there!), and also cool he mentioned the miracle man was the first BKP - still one of my favourites too :)

Thanks Ol - the Deluxe ones look real nice, very classy.

I'm a tall sort of guy - can you comment on length?

I've seen and touched, but not measured!
They are adjustable; I'll get one of the guys to come back to this thread with a measurement.

i was really pleased with the new shop. congratulations. made it seem effortless to pull the trigger on my new BK set :D

that interview was nice. it's interesting to see tim's first model was actually a ceramic based one. most ''tone guys'' go right to the vintage values of alni & co. but he did that after making a ceramic magnet sound good ;)
