FAQ
Our pickups
​Q: How Do I Pay?
A: Yes, when you place an order, you'll receive an invoice with payment options, including credit card, Apple Pay, G-Pay, Klarna, PayPal etc
​
Q: How long does it take before I get my pickups?
A: We aim to process your order and have it in the post within a week of ordering. All pickups are made to order. We do not have stock, so once your payment is made, your parts are ordered. We order twice a week from our suppliers on Monday and Thursday.
​
Q: Are your vintage spec pickups actually to spec?
A: Yes... and no. We do try to source parts and materials to make the pickups we make period correct. The research that goes into each pickup is done exhaustively to bring together the facts that we can glean about each item. It's also known that some pickups back in the day were totally random. For example an original Gibson PAF was such a wild card, you didn't know which magnets would be used, they just threw in what was available, so in cases like this we've gone for what sounds best or what constituted the majority.
​
Q: Do you do custom work?
A: Yes! Just drop us a message on our contact page and we will see what we can make for you to your specification. Sign up to our mailing list to get updates about new products and projects.
​
Q: Are all your pickups wax potted?
A: No
When buying vintage spec pickups some companies will go with a more modern magnet or wax pot their pickups to bring them up to date. This is to be able to handle high gain rigs that are more prevalent today. But we've tried to remain faithful to the original specs so that you can get the authentic experience of buying an original spec pickup from that era.
​
