I'll post pics when i get the guitar. As for the purple I hope Tim will do it, but I doubt it. From what I remember the purple was only for regular spaced Rebel Yells.

Ooh I may be wrong I see Tim did a purple and white Warpig for a Hello Kitty Strat not too long ago. Maybe he can do it for me. Fingers crossed.

Oooh now my hopes are really up. That guitar would look sick with purple pickups and knobs.

Well it appears I may be out of luck. Tim told my dealer he could only do the 50mm spacing in purple. I e-mailed Tim to see if maybe he is just out of 53mm purple bobbins and may be able to do it in the near future, but I think I'm SOL and will probably just have to go black. Although I think I recall reading something that said he only could ever to purple in 50mm. I wonder if the couple of guys who used them in normally F-Spaced guitars just used the 50mm. I wonder how much it would effect the tone?

i have to say, i can't really hear a differece. i have a 50mm pickups in f-spaced guitars and 53mm pickups in g-spaced guitars. i figured with ceramic magnets the fields will be pretty strong anyway

I do believe Nolly put his in a Floyd'd guitar with the compromise.

+1 on not noticing much difference with the spacing

Thanks guys and also Nolly and Tim. I pm'ed Nolly and he said Tim told him 50mm was good enough for EVH :) Also Tim said that with the twin screw poles of the C-Pig it has a very wide magnetic field and the spacing would make no difference. So I have purple pigs on the way :) I also have a set of purple knobs coming for it as well as a purple dimarzio cliplock. I actually plan on using the purple ends and the green center section of the strap to have a green/purple strap. Should be cool :)
