SD Custom Shop Turn Around Time

Hi,

I sent two pickups for classic cover about two weeks ago.

Does anyone know how long it usually takes?

Cheers!

I believe they're pretty backed up at the moment from what I recall MJ saying. Your best bet's to probably give her a call brisk and see what she says.

I think it say on the site where you get info about the custom shop to expect 4-6 weeks.

I heard they are very busy right now, but doing as much as possible to meet the current orders - I'm not sure exactly on the CS stuff, though.

Not to take business away from Seymour, but it's worth checking out Steven Kersting (the guy who sells the magnets) at SK guitar specialties. I just sent in an Alnico II Pro to be covered and repotted, and also to have the leads extended. It was only $25, and his turn around time is very fast. Something to consider if you need this done in the future.

Re: SD Custom Shop Turn Around Time

I've placed several orders through the CS. Turnaround time depeds largely on what you're having done, in addition to how backed up they are.

In my experience, the orders ran 3 to 8 weeks. The longest was for a custom chrome cover for a pickup that normally doesn't have a cover, an SD for Rickenbacker bass bridge pup. In that case, Seymour actually had to order a special tool to do the job.

In all cases, however, the outcome has been worth the wait.

That's about right. 6 weeks is what it took to get my EVH/78 humbucker. Lew
 
Re: SD Custom Shop Turn Around Time

When I called from our shop to place an order for a double cream Custom Custom, they told me 4-6 weeks.
 
Re: SD Custom Shop Turn Around Time

4-6 is what I have seen on my work too. They were upfront about it so there were no surprises.
 
Re: SD Custom Shop Turn Around Time

4-6 is typical, they are really busy right now so it may take a little longer
