Another shoutout for Jeff at Fret Shack/Coil Shack. Brand new set of humbuckers for my LP

Jeff has done some incredible work for me over the past year, so when I had the opportunity to get my paws on some of his pickups, I jumped on it. I had him wind me some of his new humbuckers and I'm ecstatic with the results. As beautiful as they are, they sound even better than they look. I honestly didn't expect such a huge sonic upgrade over the stock Gibson humbuckers, so I was really blown away when I finally got to sit down and play on them. So much more nuance and depth to the voicing of my LP. It's going to take me some time to learn how to utilize the versatility of these new pickups, so it should be a lot of fun learning all of the set points on the tone/volume knobs.


I'll let Jeff explain the technical details of the pickups if he sees this thread. Here are some pics

I'm a simple dude. I see an instrument on Fret's bench, I upvote.

And yeah, those pickups sound amazing. He's got a good thing going with them.

Guitar looks even better with the white ones.

Is that a tea burst finish?

I am happy for you and Fret if this becomes another revenue stream. But I am here to steal from Mr.Shack.

The blue bench vise in pic 2 and 3, what material are you using on the jaws to not mar your workpiece? I have my dads old red craftsman vise on my bench.

I am in Katy I cant take your business, and by the time I gain your experience we will both be too old and blind to see much anyway.
