who makes chrome pickups

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm trying to find a chrome pickup for a project. I'm taking an epiphone eb-0 and want to add a bridge pickup to it. For it to not look totally out of place, its got to be chrome though. Ebay has some on there but they are neck pickups, so they are a little too narrow as far as the distance from outer pole to outer pole. Any suggestions. A mini humbucker would be great

I know that Status Graphite had some chrome pickups on some of their basses

I think one of these would work well
Vintage Vibe Guitars makes them
They are custom made and wound for $80 or so

Thanks

They've used chrome lipstick pickups for years. Not sure if you can order them separately though.
