Before BKP, I would never have thought pickups could LOOK so good. Really interested to see how it will look in my guitar. And more importantly how it will sound!

How can I order Ceramic Warpig?  Do they make a solid black, with out the scratches?

Yes they do and you can choose the colour of your bolt - all black or chrome.  You just write 'all black ceramic warpig' in the special comment box of the order form (or you email or telephone BKP with your specifications)

Does it cost any more to have a ceramic Warpig as opposed to an Alnico Warpig?  And by the way, that solid black one with black poles is gorgeous to the extreme.  Mmm.  I want one. :D

thanks, she's a beast.
It was an Engl 1/2 stack (now sold to my mate) and replaced with a Rivera Knucklehead;

Ahah, it's easy to pick those ENGL grills.

Time to change out those EMGs for some BKPs I think!

LOL
NO :P
Just got the Custom Shop yesterday and thus far am liking em in this setup.
I have a few BKP's so variety dos'nt hurt y'know (but never say never ;)).

Heh, it's all good. Congrats on the new guitar then. I have EMGs in my LTD and that guitar has great tone.

Word of warning:

If you do go for all black, be careful with the matt finish because it comes off REALLY easily. My tortex pick can shave it off and they arent exactly the hardest thing in the world. Go for gloss black if you want all black.

Sounds like a cheap but effective way to transform your regular black cover into a battle-worn black cover  :(

I guess that's what they do anyways; sticka knife and slash the damn things. I might do that to mine lol. It just looks a bit tatty having bits of paint chipped off. If it goes wrong I can always ask Tim to take the cover off for me.

Well, I got the Warpig installed today (pics are in the pics thread) and they kick major ass. Thanks to all those who recommended them in the first place. I'm extremely happy with the tone I'm getting from my Caparison now. I think in the future I'll be installed BKPs in all of my guitars!

Those are gorgeous! My Warpigs are open-coled and very "plain Jane" looking, but they are the sonic equivilant of a sledgehammer to the head!  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:
