I was a member of the BK forum and got booted off for complaining about the quality control
^does not appear to be true unless his post's got removed...

I don't make empty accusations
^Also does not appear to be true.

he immeduiately attacked me without 1st knowing the facts.
Questioning =/= attacking, it's traditionally how one goes about getting the facts... :roll:

It wasn't a mistake, it was chromaticism, I swear.

Hazarding any message board can be a risk, but the name brand ones are just generally a slog...

Someone making accusations that are apparently hard to substantiate...maybe the pickups he got just gave him a different result from what he expected? Also lol @ the slam that BKPs are "toneless," I'm sure my Aftermath is completely different from anything Duncan offers but that's not for lack of tone. This is also the first time I've ever heard BKP accused of having quality control issues...

re: the Duncan forums empty accusations guy: Even people who make empty accusations will claim they don't, so he might just be blowing hot air.

As for the actual pickup recommendations, I know there are some guys around who've had experience with BKPs and Duncans, so surely there's one or two guys around here could help if anyone actually needs that advice still

It's part of the nature of the internet, I think. There are many forums - mostly American ones IMO - that are full of such people with strong love/hate-opinions and who always try to force their view on others in the most intolerant way.

Sometimes I think people make up such stories/claims just so they can be part of a discussion, which is really sad. It probably gives them a feeling of importance and power, which they lack in their "real" life.

This is also very, very true to this forum.

uh ? As far as I'm concerned this forum is one of the very few educated ones. Ok, I don't read each and every post but still I'd rather trust the regulars here that Joe Average Guitar Forum Lurker.
