Where did you learn to work on guitars? I'm thinking of getting into building and modding, and living in Vancouver I don't know of many nearby places/people to learn from.

My thoughts exactly. :yesway:

No way guys. 10s are way too light for C standard. Drop C and they might be ok. 11-52 or 12-54. EDIT: If your low E is too loose as a 56, there must be something wrong with your setup. Take it to a guitar tech if you can.

Actives like blackouts and EMGs are plastic or something. That and the fact that there's no screw row contribute to a pickup that doesn't look so great in my opinion (sorry active users). Anything nickel or chrome would probably look out of place with the black hardware. And while burnt chrome...

Black or battleworn black. :yesway:

I'd say you should get in on the "battleworn" process. See if Tim will let you use a big medieval sword. :lol: Anything we can expect from the prototype? What characteristics are you going for? All of this is reminding me of my aspirations to wind my own pickups. Does anyone know of a...

Prototype as in something that might lead to a new addition to the BK lineup?

Sorry if you already said so earlier in the thread, but what pups are going in?

That's the kind of picking technique you learn at guitar boot-camp. Brutally tight shit right there. :hbang:

Epic NGD! I have a Horizon NT-ii. ESPs are money. Some of the best out there for sure. Say, how do you find having an alnico pickup in the bridge and a ceramic in the neck (the PK being the only ceramic neck bareknuckle)? And to the above: all North-American Horizons and Eclipses have binding...

I have a strat that I tore apart and converted to H-H. Sounds amazing with a D-Sonic in the bridge. Needs a fretjob or even a new neck pretty bad though. If I had some spare cash I'd get the trem cavity completely filled in and finished over and get a tune-o-matic string-thru bridge.

I have a ceramic warpig in a 6 string and I take it to drop-b sometimes. Sounds sounds awesome to me. It's definitely tight enough if you EQ it properly. The bass can loosen it up if you don't dial it back on the amp sometimes. It's not ridiculous, but enough to make you take it back a notch. I...

DO IT! :hbang:

That's just the MM, though. If I was considering the CL, I'd be thinking more along the lines of a Painkiller for a BKP. Either way, congrats. Any BKP is better than no BKP.
