Well, im currently waiting for my PIG90 bridge MQ neck combo!;) They should be on their way by now!:) How does it work when you order outside UK, do you get it delivered to the door or do you pick it up at the postal office? Do you get any notification that its arriving?

 :D I received my pickups today!! I placed my order just before Christmas, and since it's a custom order, I think it's pretty short! They look exactly as expected, both BKP etched, battle worn black cover Nailbomb Bridge with silver allen bolts, and a chrome Cold Sweat Neck with black allen bolts. If the sound match the look, it will be crushing!!
thanx Tim, I can't wait to install them! :D

I took a few pics of the pickups yesterday, although I didn't install them in my guitar already!
I'm waiting on new pots (push/pull) and I changed my strings less than one week ago, so I'll install the pickups in a few days, not a big deal! I have to take it easy, anyway! :)

it seems that my pickups chose to arrive the only day i could actually retrieve them, and NOT the day before, that would have been great... so at the moment they're bouncing in a damn postman bag... plus i worked last night - that's why i could have take them at the post office just this morning - and didn't sleep at all.

and it took an hour or so to find a damn place to leave my car

and i've got headache

and a guitar i ordered from the USA is locked at the customs, i will pay it twice considering the ransom, and it will arrive (if it will) in a month or so...
of course a few hours AFTER the only day in a couple of weeks i would have be able to go and finally reclaim it (battered and broken and not insured)

so i'm damn furious.  :shock:

all is better, now...
took pickups and installed them...
new guitar arrived and it's damn awesome (and intact)

i've got the terrible sense of guilt that inevitably comes after GAS fulfillment, but it'll go soon  :)

when i'll have both the new born and my epi fit with the last BKPs i'm waiting for, well... i'll be ok for a while...  :lol:

What guitar did you order dheim?

U.S. Masters Hornet Performer, shaped like an SG but feels definitely more like a LePaul... thicker, rounder and much heavier than the SG anyway...
there's a set of Holy Divers en route!

Sexy curves, even better than the SG imho!
how does  the headstock look? It's look like a PRS one, but on this pic it's quite difficult do judge...
