My favourite BKPs (of the ones I've owned so far) are the Cold Sweats. 

But if I could only keep one guitar, it wouldn't be the one they're currently in.  Might have to get something custom.
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM

I'm tempted to say my Pig 90/MQs but maybe with a slightly hotter MQ neck so that the gain level is about the same as the bridge.

Mules are good (and versatile) but I think I prefer the p90s now. Plus they're just as versatile.

Ho hum...

I'm a strat kinda guy, so if I was only allowed one guitar... purely on the look and feel of the thing, it would have to be me strat...

But, if I was being sensible, practical, etc... (and this, therefore, is my choice in this hypothetical scenario/thread :lol:)

Them Yardbirds in my 60s style Fender Japan Custom Tele.

She do it all and she so easy to play... :D recently all the recordings I've been working on, I pick up other guitars, try them out, record takes... and eventually I reach for the black tele (Iris), to see what she does... and it turns out she's the one, yet again... :roll:



(but, if I ever do reach that tear-jerking day when I must walk out of here with one guitar only, it would probably be the strat (Edith) and it would matter not wot BKPs were in her at the time...)

I think that would be my choice too, but not quite sure.
I would really like to get a good bit of play time on a RY set in LP standard and twiddle with heights etc

If I only had one guitar I'd have to buy a few more!  However if I'm answering this seriously it would be a toss up between an Emerald equiped Les Paul Custom and a 62 Strat with A5 Apaches.  Tough choice, bit overall I think the Strat is more versatile.
So many pickups, so little time
