Hello my fellow builders, after designing and winding different pickups I've finally came up with a great pickup and I would like to give away a few. I'm working on covers for my pups, so for now you'll need to make your own. These pickups are fully humbucking and come with 4 wires.
My goal is to start selling them in the near future, prices will start at $60 each. Thats a pretty good price for a scatter wound, epoxy potted custom made pickup. For now I'm looking for feedback, good or bad, just tell me what you think of them.
If you like your free pickup and would like a second for a calibrated set let me know (You'll need to pay for the second one $60 plus $5 for shipping).
Just send me a pm with your string spead, number of strings and if you want a neck or a bridge pickup. The pickup will come in a plastic box 1.25" wide, lenght will depend on string width. Also include your name and address.
I only have a limited number of supplies for this. I hope you like them.
Thanks |

I think you'll get more responses, if you title it "Free Beer"  |

I wasn't able to top that Halloween until my mid-twenties and I worked at a brewery. That year I gave out 12-packs of Sam Adams!
Best.
Halloween.
Ever.
