How well do you know your pickups?

[BowerR64]

What pickup is this? i want to get a couple more but i cant find em anymore.

All my guitars and pickups video

I got these generic pickups off e-bay to complete a guitar i was building for a friend and they were just cheap humbuckers in a set and came with all the hardware thats why i chose em. Once i got em and tried em they sounded kickass so i got a set for myself. I made this video a couple days ago because i was bored and once i made it i like these pickups and wanted another set but i cant seem to find em anymore.

I posted this video on the harmony central forums and everyone liked em too but i couldnt link em to the guy selling em because i couldnt find the seller anymore. All i know is on the box they say "Gifmen" Im pretty sure they are made in china.

Have a listen to the video they are "cheap e-bay bucker unknown brand" I got the black ones and the zebra from the same dude.

The only way i know off had is to measure the resistance of the ones you have and see if they are close.

With out model numbers and manufacturer it is just an educated guess.

Did you measure them still connected to the pots? They have to be disconnected from the circut to get an accurate reading.

they dont have to be removed to get the reading, ive done this before.

This is what the stock box looked like. I sold the stock EMG selects and put them in the old box.
