I was wondering if its possible to paint pickups when you order a custom shop guitar?

You can do anything with a custom. It is a custom after all...

I don't think it would. Jackson paints their pickups all the time, but then again Jackson sucks ass imo.

Geez, at least give credit where credit is due. Afterall ESP did originally copy the Jackson Soloist body and headstock. They can't suck that bad.

I'm talking about playability. Jackson=fail, imo.

you all fail:p It's totally okey to paint pickups.. ESP does it all the time too, not just Jackson. Look at kirks mummy guitar for example.

Yeah cause that constitutes "all the time" LOL I believe there are no issues painting pickups as long as you use a paint without metal content.
