10th anniversary BKPs
« on: August 25, 2013, 05:51:45 AM »
They went into my son's 1978 ES-335, and they are amazing sounding pickups. What a great tone he gets on his guitar. Glad I got ahold of these ones.

Excellent. Can't wait to install mine. What options did you choose on the pickups?

It was brushed nickel, unpotted, and 4 way conductor. The guitar was made with a coil tap switch that year.

Am going to put them in my Les Paul Custom - but will have to wait for Christmas as at the moment there are 5000 miles between the guitar and the pickups!

Thanks Keith! That's a gourgeus Les Paul you got there. Thanks Mr Air man! I'll ask the kid to make a clip once he settles down in college.

I have seen a few sets of these on ebay the past few days. been curious about their sound. I'm surprised the bkp site doesnt have a write up on them even though they were a limited run.

Just got mine - set #64 - still debating which guitar to put them in.  I got the nickel finish.  I might put them in my Zemaitis clone, but that has a great set of BK pickups in it already!  I might end up like Philly and just have them for looking at!

In that case just send 'em to me and I'll find a home for the little buggers  :D

I'm sure I'll find a home for them (even if I have to buy a new guitar!).  I am thinking that perhaps they would be a good set to put in my anniversary Lion.
