Vineham "Blues Dog" A4 P90 set and Dimarzio DP169 "Virtual P90" bridge -Vineham "B;ues Dog" Alnico IV P90 set $90 shipped in the U.S. SOLD! -Dimarzio DP169 "Virtual P90"soapbar sized humbucker $50 shipped in the U.S. SOLD!

Finally finished the guitar build that I started last summer! It's been through a lot of bumps in the road, (the final one being finding out that I had placed the bridge too far forward) but the journey was well worth it. Specs: -Hollowed black korina body with a 3/4 inch hand carved bubinga...

I have a Squire baritone tele with two p90s that I like a lot. I put a pair of Vineham pickups "Blues dogs" (moderate output, A4 p90s) in it and they sound great, particularly the neck pickup, but I'd kind of like a little more "humbucker oomph" (as well as less hum) out of the bridge pickup...

So I have a strat-ish guitar (a homemade Albert Lee style) with a Custom (rough A5) in the bridge and Seth Lover (four conductor, rough A4) in the neck, wired with a 5-way super switch, currently as position 1: bridge series 2. both outside coils, 3 n+b, 4 both inside coils, 5 neck series...

I'm wanting a raw/unplated nickel cover for my Custom 5 trembucker; I bought one before from the SD Custom Shop, but I emailed them recently and they said that they are out of stock and don't know when they'll get them back. I know that trembuckers have a 52.6mm spacing, but I've also read that...

SOLD! Selling my Bare Knuckle Pickups Abraxas f-spaced bridge humbucker with raw nickel cover over zebra bobbins. Only about two months old, its a nice "hot p.a.f." type pickup but didn't give me the sound that I wanted out of my guitar. 14k dcr with 43awg wire, A4 magnet. Not as hot as the DCR...

Probably a long shot, but I'm looking to buy a SD Trembucker cover in unplated/raw nickel to match my neck pickup. The Custom Shop normally offers them, but I recently contacted them to buy one and they said they were out of stock and don't know when they'll have them back due to supply issues...

So I've got a really nice partscaster that I built based around the Music Man Albert Lee; it's a 25.5 scale length strat-ish guitar, mahogany body, wenge neck with ebony fretboard, and Hipshot tremolo. In the neck I have a Seth Lover with an A4 magnet and it sounds absolutely great, but I've...

So I recently built a Supro-inspired guitar using a body that I made myself along with a Warmoth neck. The pickups are Supro Vistatones and I just had to write something about them because the sound great! Vistatones are an old pickup design that look a lot like humbuckers (the originals were...

About two years ago I built a really nice Warmoth "jazzcaster": currently the pickups are a vintage-y tele bridge pickup and a mini humbucker sized Supro cleartone style neck pickup. I love the neck pickup; it's thick and juicy sort of like an extra fat strat. The bridge pickup however I never...

So I've gotten curious about trying a double thick magnet: I see Cermag sells them, but they charge 15eur for shipping and I'd rather not pay that on handful of bars. Are there any sellers in the U.S.? Or any users with a stash willing to part with a couple?

Adding some “oomph” to a Seth Lover bridge? I put a set of Seth Lovers in my newest build and LOVE the neck pickup, even more so after swapping the magnet to A4. The bridge though I’m just not getting along with. Stock was too loose and low output for me, so I tried an A4 in it, but it still...

Just wanted to share my excitement. I got a shop floor custom Seth Lover Trembucker in Zebra off Ebay, and a "generic" covered SL for the neck. I took the cover off and yay, zebra underneath! Also, for those of you who have swapped magnets in your Seths, what are your favorites? I'll try the...

Hi there, I'm planning to build a humbucker guitar and wondering which ones you might recommend me. My main guitar has two p90s and I love the clarity/articulation of them. I'd like the humbuckers to be articulate, not too dark, and probably on the lower output/vintage-y side of things. I...

Neck or middle position, must have a plain chrome cover. Will consider similar minis.
