Student Discount

[apmaman]

if it includes Young Scot Cards too im all for it. We Scottish students need good pickups at a fair price too!!

Why on earth would Tim just start selling pickups at 20% off, when he can sell them at the normal price and still find more than enough buyers? :S

because he can support more musicians that way and the word of BKPs will spread faster

The average student would not pay extra for BKPs when they're happy with Stock or SD/Dimarz etc.

because he wants to support the music of talented young musicians (students) loyal to his brand (forum members)

a cut down package, with no strings, plectrum, springs or screws for example.. just a few models, no custom options.

Even a cutdown model would still be more expensive than most.

I think the biggest reason against a student discount is how easy it is to obtain a fake NUS ID card.

What Tim should do is supply the tutors with BKP's cheap so their students are gagging for them :)

Here is a famous quote that I love and consider applies to my guitars and BKP pickups too

"The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten"

Henry Royce (1863 - 1933) automobile manufacturer (co-founder of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars).

We are all money concious but sometimes getting the right  product is more important and transcends financial considerations.

The difference in price may only be the cost of a round of drinks at the bar, but you may end up keeping the pickup 40 years
