ordered some BKP's
« on: March 25, 2007, 11:29:27 PM »
Hi guys,

I ordered two sets of BKP's some weeks ago. How long does it take usually for them to get delivered? I'm anxious to gig with them  :twisted:
It's not in any way meant to spead up things... I'm just curious, as I've got some gigs coming up. I'd like to know if there's still enough time left to have them installed and to adjust to the new PU's.

Cheers,
Dieter

If you're further away it's sensible to assume it would take longer.

And also, if you ordered some special custom job, you'd have to give them some time to make the pickups themselves, and this could take a while due to the amount of orders the guys are put under atm.

How long did it take for you guys? I didn't request any specific options, just plain black open poles.

mine were shipped in 2 weeks and took more 1 week to be delivered at my door (brazil)
never received an international package so quickly
usually it takes 3 weeks from USA, cause it takes 7-10 days to arrive in brazil and more 2 weeks stuck in customs and postal service
i asked Tim to ship it without a value declared or i would pay a 60% tax
Riff Raff, Mules, Black Dog, VHII's, Cold Sweat

He will probably have a load already winded and made so if that is the case it will get to you within a few days.

I had a custom set of holy divers made and it took just under 5 days i think to get them to my door.

Hmm that was bizarre though as we shipped within a week of your order and US delivery isn't usually that slow.At least they got there safe'n'sound :D .

As soon as I've got them installed (I'm not taking any chances  :? ), I'll post as much pics as you like   :wink:
They're just open blacks though, as I found those to match my guitars best.

Sounds cool! I have open coils on my Holy Diver set in my Ibanez.

Well I'm still waiting for my PKs to arrive... However, I ordered 7 string models of The Nailbomb and The Mule (which is not quite usual, I know  :) ), Further more I ordered them on Friday 13th :D:D:D

So it's been almost two weeks now... Just how much more do you think it will take?
I wish women were like pickups - if they lack output, you sell them... or ask Tim to rewind them :D
