Post by: orest009 on October 23, 2017, 12:52:29 PM
Hi Guys!!

Being reading the forum almost daily but i haven't found a list
with the pickup's release dates!!

I was wondering which one was the first?
Ragnarot obviously is the last  :cheesy:

Let's make a list from the first one to the very last with release dates
included if possible!!

Just for the fun of it...

Really?
I wouldn't have guess it, though MM was somewhere in the middle of the list!

Sig pickups aren't that old, aftermath was released around 2011 I believe, black hawks were 2013ish etc.

You can find some really old (I mean REALLY old) threads about miracle man on this forum, so yeah, it's really old. Warpig isn't very new either.

I got my Miracle man in 2005 I believe so it's at least that old. I think BKP themselves started around 2003/4.

I remember the announcement of the Nailbomb, Warpig and Painkiller.

God this has made me feel really old!

It was a while ago, but I also understand the first pickup was the Miracle Man, followed by the Mule.

I know that Mules, Emeralds, Riff Raff, Stormy Monday and Crawler were all available in 2004, because I bought them then.  I also know the P-90 range (BKP 90, 91 & 92) were available then, as I got some P-90's too.  I believe that most of the Strat & Tele pickus were too.  When I worked at the LGS in 2005 with Tim, he had a pretty comprehensive selection available.

I'm pretty sure the Crawlers and Rebel Yells were the first two signature pickups and both were around in 2007. I saw Steve Stevens at a guitar clinic back then (which was awesome he is a great player and a really nice person). I talked with him a bit about Bare Knuckle Pickups after the clinic, and I know he had his signature pickup then, and I ended up buying a Crawler later that year.
