How addicted to BKP's are you?
« on: October 10, 2008, 01:05:02 AM »
Do you ever think you can get rid of your BKP addiction or not? I'm pretty addicted myself and I can't stop thinking about them when I grab my electric guitars.

What would you choose between the two:

a) Having an awesome, hot party with amazing ladies that want to have sex with you all night long (and with other ladies). Free beer/Free ladies/You're the only guest.

b) Free BKP shopping together with Tim.

With a bucket full of BKPs the ladies wouldn't be able to keep their hands off of me anyway!  They love great guitar tone...

I occasionally find myself dreaming of buying guitars, just to fit BKPs to them. Like i want to try the Cold Sweats, so will need a les paul. I have a les paul! I'm happy with it!

I then try and kid myself that i DONT need them. So I'll pick up a cheaper set, be happy for a bit, then plug in a BKP guitar and realise my mistake :(

I think a more pertinent question is:

If you had to choose between:

A) Torture
and
B) being forced to play a telecaster, and being pictured/filmed holding said instrument

which would you choose?

Clearly the only valid answer is A.

b) Free BKP shopping together with Tim.

This sounds like a just-got-back-from-the-pub question.  It's such a ridiculous choice I can't actually answer it.

a) It's impossible to imagine myself in such a situation, so I think sheer embarrassment would destroy most if not all of the potential for fun.  Unless I had somehow metamorphosed into Calum Best as part of the deal (please god no...  :? ).

b) This conjures up a scene out of some chick flick where they go on a shopping expedition and the girl skips gaily in and out of changing rooms in different outfits while the bloke sits there trying to look interested.  With some godawful cheery music in the background.

I'll answer this way. All of our guitars have BKP's bar 2. One is awaiting enough cash to get them and the other is acoustic.

Three of my guitars have BKPs, the others are fine just as they are.

I guess I'm not that addicted  ;)

I actually preferred another brand of pickups in my strat, so I guess I'm not too addicted or blinded by the brand name :o

and I'd quite like a guitar with EMGs in for that generic metal tone
