Alpo presents: Bare Knuckles: a pic(kup)-story!

Alpo · 11-01-2007, 08:13 AM

What's this then?

Royal Mail? Blimey, must be something important!

A half-naked man with a smashing moustache? Exactly what I wanted!

My gorgeous new Bare Knuckles (Nailbomb bridge and Cold Sweat neck):

Came with a bunch of stuff:

Awesome pick:

Fresh strings! The exact gauge I use! Wait a minute... It's missing a string!! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!!!

Good thing I have some D'Addario 10-59's.

Delivery was bloody fast. I ordered tuesday last week, and got them today.

That's it. Sorry for the crappy pic-story. I'll take the guitar to the shop today. Maybe they can do something about that nasty buzz on the open g-string while they're at it.

Nice bro - those pickups look hot. Too bad they cant be white

kmanick · 11-01-2007, 08:36 AM

Me likey alot!

I'll definitely tell you guys how much they suck!

There will probably be some clips when I get my Toneport tweaked to suit the awesomeness.

i remember the day mine arrived. happy day indeed. you're gonna love the NB

GODDAMN!! The guy from the shop just called and said the pickups won't fit in my guitar! And he won't route it because there's too little wood. What the hell? I'm really fucking pissed right now...

Won't fit? How so? Too tall, or wide?

Alpo · 11-01-2007, 10:56 AM

He said they were too tall. I measured them when I got them, and they were pretty much the exact same width as the stock pups.

Nice

I have a picstory, but seeing as you've beat me to it I may not bother (plus internets at home is fuxx0rd)

Spend some time playing with them on a clean setting, i think i have hardly played them through distoriton as they just sound nice!

Oh, and get a coil tap push/pull pot wired in, they are just absolutely gorgeous when split!
