:o :o sickening! I remember when I worked through my summer holidays last year, it was horrible.

Back on topic, I dont think that covered would look too good, unless they were the black covers.

well i was thinking of getting camo covers, as the colour of the guitar is sorta green-y brown-y colour, like on the pics in the gallery of the nailbombs

Yeah camo or distressed might look pretty cool in that case.. not a fan of that colour to be honest though.

Black covers would probably look cool.

I'd be inclined to stick with the zebra...

Or, if you do go camo or black, that cream knob will have to go - otherwise there's no cream for it to match with and it'll stick out like a cream knob on a brown guitar :drink:

does anybody know if there are camo open coils????

As far as I know, the camo isn't an option on open coils :( ...and I don't think it would be the greatest idea if it was an option to get camo zebras. But, diff'rent strokes, I guess. I say go for cream open coils. For a very classy look, I would also say that nickel or possibly raw nickel would be be very nice. Black covered pickups would be excellent too. Really up to you in the end but, don't shy away from covered pickups from BKP...they're just as toneful, biting, and fierce (if you like them that way) as open coils.

How do you adjust the pickups when they are directly mounted?
