Re: Now this is good news . . .

I really dig the black powdercoat. I think I need some pickups that look like that.
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

The Black Powdercoat has been around for ages as a Shop Floor Custom. But it's cool to see it being highlighted, as I think it's one of the cleanest looks around.

The radiator/gold foil is my next choice...if only they'd offer THAT in the Black Powdercoat frame!!!

I'd love that Nickel Boarder Tortoiseshell, but then pop out the tortoiseshell insert. That "partial" cover could be cool.
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

I love it too, but not a fan of how the screws don't match

I think I may order a Distortion set in the black powder coat though, but with black screws to match.

Meh. I really just have my 335 as a humbucker guitar - and that looks fine with regular covers. All the rest have gone single coil. :P
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

Love to put those black powder covers over my APH set. Wonder when you can order some?
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

I noticed these a few days ago myself. They're pretty sweet. If I had a second axe for a goldfoil bridge pickup I'd probably get one
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

Am I wrong that these aren't available for all pup models, but only a select few? And it would be sweet if they were sold as an add-on accessory.

This.

Also, are they available in either regular and trembucker spacing?

From Seymour Duncan, it appears that way. But, the open covers have been around in the accessory market for a while. Here's a site selling them for $10 each. https://www.philadelphialuthiertool...ker/open-style-humbucker-pickup-cover-chrome/

Same website has radiator-style and Filtertron-style covers for humbuckers, too.
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

I also like the matte black bobbins. I think all black pickups look better that way.
 
Re: Now this is good news . . .

Black powdercoat is definitely cool, killer for a guitar with black hardware.
I like the 60s radiator/gold screen look a lot too.

I wonder if they'll sell the covers separately for those of us who already have more pickups than we need?
