This is a cool little single-coil pickup, with a nice shiny gold cover. This set includes the pickup, which has a 13" 3-conductor lead (red is positive, white negative, uninsulated/silver is the case ground), two springs and chrome mounting screws. These are rated at 5.68KOhm resistance, use a plastic bobbin and a ferrite bar magnet.
These are a step up from the economy open-pole pickups we sell, and definitely lend a classier feel to a build!
Pickup (Gold portion) Width: 2 9/16"
Total width: 3"
Center-to-center on installation holes: 2 3/4"
Depth: 1"
There have been some reports that these pickups can be a bit microphonic.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE READ... I ship packages via the U. S. Postal Service, either First Class Mail International or Priority Mail Internation. While these services generally get packages anywhere in the world in 1 to 2 weeks, sometimes it can take longer - this is almost always because the Customs Office in your country delays the package. In some cases it has taken up to 4 weeks for a package to be delivered. We will not consider an item as "lost" until at least 30 days have passed from the time of shipment. Also, you may be responsible for local customs duties and taxes depending on your country's laws. We mark package values honestly, as required by the laws of the United States, so please don't ask us to declare a false value. If you are an international buyer, please be aware of these realities BEFORE bidding.
Recycled Materials... We use recycled cardboard as packaging materials whenever possible. Those of you who care about the environment can appreciate the value of this, and everyone can appreciate the fact that it helps keep my prices lower since we don't have to buy new cardboard for packaging. This may mean that our packaging materials occasionally show some shipping scuffs, labels, printing or other markings, but used cardboard does the job just fine. Hopefully you will find a way to recycle it on your end too!
Best Value vs. Cheapest Price... Whenever possible, we try to make sure we have the best price on eBay for the products we offer. In the rare cases when another seller beats our price by a few pennies, we stand by my claim that our offer is the best VALUE on eBay. We are always available by e-mail to answer questions as best we can for anyone who buys products from us and needs advice. We certainly cannot answer every question authoritatively, but at the very least we can recommend where to go for more information. With C. B. Gitty Crafter Supply, you can be sure that your items will be well packaged, will ship on time, and will get to you as fast as USPS first class mail can deliver it.
