Are these pickups only available through the custom shop now?

I've been checking out new pickups for a guitar and these caught my eye. I've played a standard JB in one of my guitars for many years, so it seems the 35th JB should be a good choice for this other guitar, a basswood-bodied HSH/locking trem mongrel of sorts.

The 35th JB sounds great. i have one in my 80s kramer pacer,i like it a lot better than a stock JB it has a little more character.

Nice. Yeah, I read it's wax potted a little less than the regular one because of the bobbins and temperature and whatnot, and the rough cast magnet has an effect on the sound too.

It's a tossup between this 35th JB/Jazz setup, which I think I would have to order from the custom shop if I'm not mistaken, or a Pegasus/Sentient setup which just looks really awesome too -- and then I could split the coils also.

Get the hot rod humbucker set and throw some RCA5 mags in there. Pretty darned close and less $$
