    Black hardware

    I am thinking of buying the LP-1M kit with black hardware but I cannot find any images of the black hardware. When looking at the product page I only see the chrome/creme images. See https://www.pitbullguitars.com/shop/...ic-guitar-kit/

    Can anyone show me the black hardware that is supplied with this kit?

    It's the same hardware, and comes in gloss black

    I dont mind about the color of the pickguard or switchplate since I won't be using them. But I pressume that the knobs will be black speedknobs and the bridge and tailpiece will be black also. The pu rings will be black but the pu's, will they be black?

    In that case I would be really happy

    I believe so mate, if you need clarification Adam answers his emails pretty promptly and will be able to confirm for you. I'm not sure if the plastic parts are included or it's just the metal hardware.

    Also if you were to order a kit and request all black hardware and plastics, I'm sure that you would get exactly that

    Well, I ordered my kit on Feb 24th and it was despatched on that same day from Perth. However, no sign since then and the trackingnumber I have only states that the parcel is on route or that the number is incorrect.

    And that's hard for an impatient guy like me

    It's sitting somewhere in a parcels office in The Netherlands, waiting for someone to process it. It normally takes our royal Mail about a week to inform me that it's arrived and the duty needs paying.

    Hi Simon, guess what.... This morning I checked internationalparceltracking.com and to my surprise I saw that the parcel entered The Netherlands and that it took about 15 minutes to get cleared by customs. And I'm home from work and it has arrived!

    I'll open a new topic in the Build Diary forum
