hey guys,

i have desided to get a set of nailbombs in early january for my birthday but the problem is that my guitar has quite a vintige look, so i dont want to spoil it by puting in pups with say "engraved camo" covers. i quite like the look of the zebra coils though

what do you guys think ?

Thanx for any ideas

Why not just keep the look as it is now by getting either Chrome or Nickel covers?

thats quite a good idea - but i feel like a change from the norm, just something that (apart from the sound) says "you have new pickups"

if you get what i mean

zebra or cream maybe?

i quite like black open coils in goldtops, and i think somebody on here has the black covers too

Double cream (yum) or cream & black zebra gets my vote if you want open coils, but personally I'd probably change all the hardware to nickel and get nickel covered pups.

Double cream or cream & black zebra :twisted:

My goldtop is getting double cream Cold Sweat in the bridge and Reverse Zebra Painkiller in the neck. I had nickel covers in it before. I'm never keen on black coils in goldtops (even though I used to have a SD Pearly Gates in the neck of mine that was double black - I still had a double cream JB in the bridge).

I like open black coils, simple and classy ... and people will think it's all stock and say: "Man that guy has got serious tone in his fingers"

:P
