I have an Epiphone LP Custom with BKP Mules, with black covers and gold polepiece screw things. Looks great, as you can see on my display pic, but dontchoo go stealin' my looks now  :lol:

I'd definately get black or open coiled though, I think gold covers look so cheap and tacky after installing a black covered set!

I'm not a fan of gold pickup covers, and gold hardware in general - it makes it look like a guitar owned by a gypsy.

Black bridge, reverse Zebra in the neck. Looks cool!
Or, "aged" gold-covers?
