So, this has probably been asked before, but how long does it usually take for the pickups to be made and delivered? (I know it probably varies depending on location, but I thought I'd ask)

I'm in the US, and I got it in about a week. So pretty quick!

WOW! That is quick. Just more proof that Tim and the gang are the cooolest.

We'll always do our best although we'll never rush at the expense of the p/ups.I normally say to allow 10 days for US to be on the safe side, occasionally it can be longer if I have to order a pickguard in for example.

All the one's I've got in the past arrived when Tim said they would.

They say a week's a long time in politics, but they haven't waited a week for a set of phenomenal pickups.

(Tim, the invoice is in the post! ;) )

If there's a delay it's probably customs, no one more concerned about you getting your package than them :roll:

...I'm hoping on getting mine into my guitar in a week...Man is it going to be a tough 7 days...I hope the tech actually is responsible putting them in on time. Stick it to the man (customs) is what I say. Now I get to wait for someone to quote TOOL.

:lol:

I remember the first set of BKP's i orderd and i was like, oh man no way these things have to be hand made he best have some stock piled and nope i had to wait. lol, worth the wait and i think it was 5 days or something like that absolutly amazing turn around time really, since i've spent over 400 quid with Tim in the past 6 months doesnt that say it all? :)

That is amazing. I don't know how Tim does it...I'll probably have to wait a little longer seeing as I live in the U.S. though :( BUT I'll have killer tone when the wait is OVER! 8)

Do the pickups come by UPS or regular USPS here in the states? Anyone know? :?:

TwilightOdyssey · « **Reply #10 on:** April 25, 2006, 11:04:23 PM »

Royal Mail, of course! :)

downrodeo · « **Reply #11 on:** April 25, 2006, 11:51:44 PM »

But seriously :D

Skybone · « **Reply #12 on:** April 26, 2006, 10:59:29 AM »

The US based branch of the Royal Mail maybe? ;)

Regular US Postal Service does the deliveries, but you need to be there to sign for the Royal Post package.

Mine arrived today and are at the shop awaiting (correct) installation. :D

The luthier was quite excited to install them and promised that he would be sure to get the guitar back to me within a couple of days--or so--after he finished. :P

Ha.

I also gave him a Bare Knuckles shirt, as the price he was charging was less than I expected, and he was really, truly giddy at getting to install and give them a go!

Hope your package of wonders arrives soon.
