Title: Oh yes! Old guitar >>> Cosmetic changes, BKP Pickup
Post by: ChrisMetal on April 13, 2007, 08:02:30 PM
Finally got round to putting my BKP's in my Les Paul. Originally had EMG's in there, now a couple of Ceramic Warpigs. But My Guitar when through a few cosmetic changes as well.

Tuners are now chrome Sperzel Locking, replaced the cr@ppy toggle switch with a brand new chrome one, which actually works properly. Replace the bridge tailpiece and stopbar to chrome. And removed the pickguard, plus the small matter of the new pickups.

Damn she looks nice and sounds even better now.

*Is very happy man*

I love my neck Warpig (alnico tho). Double ceramic though ... rock on!
How does the ceramic WP neck sound?

Both pigs together is superb too ... on lower gain amp setups it sounds a bit like Angus and Malcom playing together  :twisted:

Heh, yeah, but it's soon getting a neck replacement, cause although Rosewood is nice, I'm an Ebony fretboard fan.  

And yep thats Battle Worn Ceramic Warpigs :twisted: .

Btw anyone know how you convert the recordings in Cubase SX3 to mp3's etc? So I can post some files up of them...

HOW DO THEY SOUND?????

i really can't wait for my Ceramic Warpig.....  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

i love pimping guitars too, but electronics only (pickups included obviously!)
i like those active circuits that you install in place of a tone pot.... that's what the tone pot is there for..... to be replaced  :twisted:

hmm "incredible" would be best used in one word. But yeah, the sound I got was very, well... heavy lol and the definition in the tone is amazing. Think Testament on Low and your practically there.
