Are you in the UK?
No, I'm in the US but if you have them sent to me, I could repack/relabel them so you wouldn't
get hit with a big Customs import fee and you could still save the 20% for not being in the EU.
You don't have to pay custom fee in the USA?
Nope. We can order from anywhere and it just goes straight to the doorstep.

Raw is my favorite of that bunch but have a look at the brushed while you're at it. That's what I went with for my Abraxas set, looks sharp!

Just noticed that Lollar have the 4 conductor wire on the Imperial too.
Hmmmm... hard to choose.

Those are awesome... just noticed them on the website (not pictured).
They also have them with gold screw (I like them).

I have 4 guitars with lollars and once changed the pus in an ibanez 335 copy to imperials: always an audible upgrade.
Your choice...

It sort of fits the flame top, better than black covers at any rate and I don't like coverless pups.

The tyger are cool.
If I go with the Bare Knuckle Abraxas it will be the Brushed Nickle with gold screw.
I still have a lot of time to decide between them or Lollar Imperial.

Can't fault that choice, the gold screws really bring out your eyes.

I would normally say raw, but with your headstock the black covers could looks pretty snazzy, too. One of those.

Yeah, the tyger looks too gimmick-y and kind of Spinal Tap.

I'm not a fan of the coverless either, that's why i voted Raw, the brushed nickel looks tight.

Didn't know about the brushed one when I created te poll.
They are my favorite now.
If I go with Bare Knuckle of course.
I wanted to sell the guitar and get something else.
But it's been more than a year that I'm seraching... and the conclusion is that I really like my CE-22.
Best neck ever (wide fat neck). Sound great unplugged.

Just did some painting using MS Paint.
What you all think?
Keep in mind that there's a natural bending on the guitar.

If I change the ring for black one... maybe some trans black knobs would be cool too.

Since the headstock is black you could do black pickups and knobs.
