Actually, I don't have a major problem with the current website and I love the personal nature of it all. I couldn't go to Seymour Duncan or DiMarzio and email the owner for high quality advice. You can't put a price on that for me. I tried contacting DiMarzio for advice a while back and their reply was utterly useless. BKP means so much to me that even though I'd prefer humcancelling single coil sized pickups I'll still buy Bare Knuckle and I'll happily pay the little bit extra that they may cost. It's partly down to the quality of the product but it is also heavily down to my ability to contact Tim and the people on the forum. Here I feel very much like I'm part of a family and when I'm on the forum it always feels like I'm talking to intelligent adults with good manners rather than silly kids, which is how it always feels on a certain other popular forum! OK, love-in over, now what would I like to see on a new website?
A more up-to-date products page would help and I'd love to be able to listen to clips of every pickup as clean, mid and high gain, all playing the same thing through the same rig. I'd also like all of these clips to be available in either a dark sounding guitar like a Les Paul and a bright sounding guitar like ermm.... a Jackson SL3 would be nice :D A tone chart might be nice too and more details of neck pickups too. When I got my Cold Sweats I knew it was a ceramic bridge and the DC resistance but I had no idea about the neck. What I DON'T want is some automated pickup selector like they use at Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio as they just don't work. There's no substitute for this forum and speaking to BKP themselves.
Spent so long writing all this I've forgotten what I was going to say about pickups on this thread! :shock:
