Re: $359 for an EVH pickup?
that is the new humbucker made by Fender/EVH. it is the exact same pickup in the $25K frankie replicas. it is hand signed by edward, aged and is limited to like 300 (or something like that). there also a non signed version, its the same pickup, only not signed by eddie and not aged.2015 Knaggs Steve Stevens SSC T2

It's 90% in the fingers and brain. Once you get the style down, the sound comes fairly easy.Originally posted by Christopher Caruana View PostComment

I will laugh, every time I play on my $45 used C5 or my $35 used PATB-1 and I sound like myself and not like someone else.Originally posted by jjimi1647 View PostLaugh all you want, the MSRP is $500! So, that's actually a bargain!Guitar:

Re: $359 for an EVH pickup?
Best thing is the relic wonīt get you any closer to any tone EVH ever recorded, because itīs the condition Frankieīs PU is in NOW, not 20 years ago. And AFAIK Frankie hasnīt been used on a record in quite some time..

Re: $359 for an EVH pickup?
Wow.... I thought $150 for it from Musician's Friend was absurd.
Edit- I had the price $30 too high. Still absurd, though.Last edited by JB_From_Hell; 03-28-2009, 12:45 PM.“I can play the hell out of a riff. The rest of it’s all bulls**t anyway,” Gary HoltComment
