Was it you who was complaining about nickel tarnishing? If you're not averse to that look, I'd say go with the nickel; otherwise, go with the P-rails.

Also, I like the current bridge. The rosewood pickup rings, though, :yesway:

I'm not worried about nickle tarnishing, I'm anal enough with my guitars that I don't have to be :rofl:

I'm tempted by the p-rails because of the way they may sound and by the covered BKP's because the way they look (and sound, but looks primarily). Perhaps I'll email Tim for suggestions on a BKP pair that'll fit the sound I'm looking for well.

If I go covered nickle, I'd certainly go rosewood rings, not sure if I'd chose them if I stay with open black bobbins.

I'm thinking about going with the new bridge as it mirrors the cut on the top of the headstock, but the current bridge works quite well.

My camera must be sinister :)
As a fellow lefty this made me chuckle. :D

Congratulations! :metal: Absolutely beautiful top on that thing, although I don't personally think I could get on with that neck heel.

I would go with:
- Nickel Covered BKP's (for me the Rebel Yell)
- The darker wood pickup rings
- Keep the original bridge - I know those Schroeder ones are meant to be lighter, and overall people seem to be raving about them but I just think they look too weird with the big bizzare hump out of the back of bridge. :lol:
:2cents:
