Bare Knuckle covers on other pickups?
« on: November 23, 2011, 09:47:26 AM »
So I'm after a Tyger covered Miracle man for the brige in my Gibson Explorer but really like the neck pickup. I hate pickups that don't have matching covers. The neck is open poles. Does anyone know if I can get a Tyger cover on it? I'm guessing not but it's worth a try :P

BKP might put a cover on it for you, it wouldn't do any harm to ask.

But you might find the polepiece spacing doesn't match exactly.  I don't know about Gibson pickups, but DiMarzio's standard spacing - for example - is a little narrower than BKP's.
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM
