Title: Plunge taken, AGAIN...
Post by: ventura on May 31, 2011, 01:33:43 AM

This time I'm going with MMs for my ESP Horizon FR-II...  I was deliberating over the NBs for ages, but I just figured let's try something completely different.  My PKs in my ESP NT-II are absolutely killer, but that's my de-tuned, low key ax with big strings.  This latest ESP is my 'stunt' guitar, and I wanted something completely different than the EMGs that came stock with it.

Nevertheless, if anyone has any experience with the MMs in a neck thru (maple) guitar with mahogany body, maple top and ebony fingerboard, lemme know...  I'm all ears  :D

Cheers,
V.

PS - going with 4 wire split upon installation, just for the flexibility...

SECOND plunge taken...  My goodness.  Just went for a calibrated set of BDs for my Les Paul '68 Firemist today as well.  Hopefully they can couple the order as I just ordered the MMs yesterday LOL.

Exciting new tones coming in the mail...  Awesome!!

Just thought I'd let the collective BKP Family know  8)

Stoked!!

PS - so this will be a family of PK, RR, NB, BD and MM in da hizzy.  Ya, I got a thing for BKP!!

As always, INCREDIBLE service from Tim and the Crew at BKP.

I ordered 2 calibrated sets, a set of BDs and a set of MMs.  They showed up one week later - incredible speed - and as always, replete with all the extra TLC goodies.  Great purchase experience as always, and 1 week from the UK to the West Coast of Canada - nicely done!!

They're getting installed this weekend  :lol:

Peace!!

MMs and BDs get installed this weekend/next week.

The fresh order of 3 Emeralds will get installed upon their arrival.

This leaves only 2 Lesters left without BKPs - LOL.

Seems I have a slight problem with BKP and OCD (hahahahahahahahaha!!!!).

Cheers,
