Balanced and articulate, but expensive

ZeeKay 11.05.2025

This pickup clearly has a distinct voice of its own. Not super high output, but works well with high gain amps and can deliver hard rock, alternative rock sounds. Clean or edge of breakup sounds are when it shines. Sounds more balanced than Gibson’s regular production models, has got a powerful midrange attack that shines through.

Ungewachst und unschlagbar

MarcoiLe80 15.11.2025

Ich war erst skeptisch doch wollte ich für mein Projekt keine Kompromisse und somit kamen nur diese golden Pickups in Frage. Bin immer noch fasziniert von der Klarheit und dem saftigen Klang der dem Preis gerecht wird. 1a* + eierlegegendewollmilchsau.ber

El paraíso existe

Juan María 03.02.2023

Se las instalé a una Epiphone B.B.King del 2022.
La Epi ya sonaba bien y no le hacia falta que le cambiara nada, pero soy un caprichoso y quería pertenecer al club Custombucker.
Las instalé... y fue subir a otro nivel. Es la diferencia que hay entre la plata y el oro. No sé dónde está el secreto, pero la riqueza de frecuencias y matices que ofrece esta pastilla no las había oído en las guitarras con Burstbucker que tengo.
Son caras, tal vez no merece la pena para una guitarra que ya suena bien..., pero estoy contentísimo con esta guitarra y a mi por lo menos, me ha valido la pena.
