Title: Pole Types
Post by: JCN1218 on March 20, 2013, 04:22:14 PM

Hi everyone, after crawling through the forums for a few days I noticed a lot of people with CSs and PKs and such are ordering them with the hex bolt poles instead of the standard screws. I really like the look of the hex bolts, but when I go to the BK shop it doesn't come up as an option. I'd like to get a MM bridge and CS neck with black hex bolt poles. I'm wondering if maybe this is no longer an option? I know it is for the War Pig and Aftermath, but not for anything else it seems.

Hi JCN1218

You can order the black hex bolts with any of our pickups though black hex bolts are not recommended for open humbuckers as they will not match the slugs in the other coil.  If you can't find the option on the shop just put it in the comments box when ordering and we can take it from there for you.

Unless you got black slugs too, presumably? (Comme ça: https://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=609.msg6654#msg6654)

Thank you! It's really awesome just how customizable these pickups are. And those black slugs are pretty cool  :D
