Black single coils that come in pairs instead of trios. Alternatively they can be had in purple.

The name: Machine Heads!

:O)

a Maiden-esque set called 'Prowlers' would be cool.

also, I think the Pig90 needs to be a standard option pickup - the name is fine 'as is' too.

A bass pickup set aimed for funk players called Slapheads, one for punk players called Spikeheads, maybe one for SKA players called Skinheads and maybe one for reggae players called Dreadheads...

I think there should be "official" names for some of the common modifications of existing BKP models, like the AV Mule and the ceramic Warpig and Nailbomb (although I quite like C-Pig and C-Bomb as names anyway!)

the what?...


the destroyers of worlds and nuclear assault? :D

It's been mentioned before, but a bass set called Troopers would give Maiden a much deserved reference in the product line. Why are two sets named after Priest and none for Maiden? Blasphemy I say.

agreed - (for guitar at least) a super dupa Iron Maiden style strat set would be awesome!

+1 because we need an offical bass set so i can stop telling bassists 'oh, they do do them - we just dont like to talk about it'  ;)

after playing some BKP j-bass pickups on new years i can say i will be using some as soon as i get around to making another bass

the Prowler riff also happens to be my fave Maiden tone if push comes to shove.
