Anyone got pictures of the new Tygyr covers in action?

Hey guys, I'm looking for pictures of the new Tygyr covers in some guitars, haven't seen any actually fitted yet.

I've got a set in my stripped RG550 - they look absolutely wicked in my opinion!

Nice! Yeah they look incredible. Would love for some more people to get some pics up.

I'm about to order a pair of BKP Aftermath 7s for my RG7621. It's currently black, but I plan on doing a natural refinish or stripping it down and getting it done in white, just interested to see how they would look with those colours, but any picture will do.

I have a Yellow Bengal Soloist.
Would Tygyrs be too much?

Well, it's a Yellow Bengal Soloist for starters. The 80s were never known for subtlety.

Can you HONESTLY say that there is any reason NOT to do it?!  :lol:

That sounds like one of the few guitars they might actually suit.  :P

(No offence to anyone, I'm just too set-in-my-ways to like any of the more "exotic" cover designs.  And I can't see Nolly's pic at the moment!  Edit:  OK, they do look good on that Ibanez!  :) )

I'd get the black satin cover, but there's too many people with issues of the paint flaking off, and the Tygyr is my next favorite.

Post some more pics up guys, would love to see your guitars with the Tygyr covers on!

If they reversed them so all black with steel tyger makings that would be huge win.

Yeah that would be great, I'd still be worried about paint flaking though.

I was thinking the same. A Black Tyger finish, how cool is that...

A black tyger finish would be the same as the black battleworn - if you let the BKP guys know that's what you want they could easily do a the "battlewearing" in the same pattern as the tyger finish.

Would really love to see what the Tygyr covers look like on a white or natural finish guitar!
