Surely BKP can do me some of these in all White, and as Miracle Men instead of 'Pigs?  They'd look sexy as a sexy thing in me PGM.

They do double white open coils (I have a Nailbomb like that and just ordered the NB neck to go with it).
So many pickups, so little time

Hi gloss white enamel paint? Cool idea!
That would look stellar in your PGM!!

YOU MUST DO IT! Surely it cant be any harder to powdercoat a pickup cover white than it is to do it black? It would indeed look as good as a good thing in your PGM, especially with black poles.

following this thread very closely in case bright red would be possible...

Anything is possible...............it's all a numbers game really, the powder coaters normally look for a minimun run of 100 pieces of one colour.

So it can be done then, with the recessed allen screws.

Hmmmm.  Miracle Man or Nailbomb....

woo! 96 now ;)

i reckon red warpigs with black polepieces would look like the business on my steinberger...

i changed the stock emg selects (worst pickups in the world) for dimarzio super-distortions and the guitar turned into a little sawn off shotgun. but i must say i learnt much more about tone since then... and the SDs are starting to sound rather unsatifactory to my ears now. i fancy something with ridiculous high gain for this little axe.
