Will my guitar require additional routing for Covered BKPs???

[slapnutz]

Has to be said, I've done the legs better than that (if ibanez2570 (craig) comes along then we may see)

But, yes, for the legs its much easier to file the legs, for the perimeter you have no choice but to do the guitar (which dheims luthier has done invisibly, as should any luthier or good (emphasise good) tech).

Thanks guys. Just something additional regarding uncovered pikcups. I noticed this picture in the BKP gallery. The "baseplate" seems to be filed/contoured around the perimeter of the 7 String pickup. Is this availabe as an option or standard?

Unfortunately its kinda hard to find more pictures of uncovered pre-installation 7 string BKP to confirm this.

It was posted in 2005 though :P

As I said, I'm not totally sure about the 7 string pickups as compared with 6 string ones (I don't have a 7 string!).  Maybe a curved baseplate is standard.

Easiest way to confirm it is to ask direct!  :)

Thanks bud. Yeah, I'm doing some info gathering before I start hammering Tim with a zillion questions. I think thats pretty much all i need to know. I'll probably just link him to this thread. 8)

Once again, thanks for everyone for their input.

I think even if the base plate were square, Tim would file it out (or get Chris or someone to file it out :lol:) to round if you asked.
