We sell a few to Europe and the states, but not many in the UK. I dont think anyone on the forum has one.

Hi.
I'm using a set of the HD's in my Jackson King-V Korina.
These are the new ones (alnicoV's).
I'm REAL happy with the tone of these pups. They sound fat, "greasy", and clear at the same time. Killer harmonics, and just the right output without beeing "over the top".
IMO, these are one of the best pickups I have EVER used.
(I've  been through a "bunch" during many years).
Highly recommended!

Hi Sambo.
Thanks.  :D
Yes Scandinavia is a great place to live,  I could not imagine to move from Norway, but who knows?
If I had lived in UK, it would most likely have been the other way around.

I'm going to UK in a couple of months, and I'm looking forward to it.

Hopefully, we might also get to play in UK some time. Now that would have been something real great!

I'm going to West Sussex, it's regarding my job.

But, with my band "Trendkiller", I hope that we can get some gigs in UK
in the near future.
We're releasing our new CD first week in February. And some gigs are undergoing some planning these days, like Germany, Scandinavia etc.....  
Now, this is way cooler than a business-trip!  :)
