FlashJim Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 I've been looking at a few ebay auctions for various pickups. Does anyone have an opinion of these? Hot Paf matched set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logical Frank Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 I was happy w/ my GFS pickups (Retrotrons) but some people say the super-bargain basement ones aren't as good. I say for that price, you really can't go wrong if you need some pickups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAArthur Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 The auction in question is not for GFS pickups. Jay does sell other pickups that he happens to buy up in lots. Notice that GFS is not mentioned in the auction. They are usually as good as any import pickup such as mighty mites, but usually no where near the same quality of materials and workmanship of true GFS pickups.

Logical Frank Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Ahhh... I see. I had thought all the pickups Guitar Fetish sold were branded GFS but I was mistaken. It's pretty apparent now that I look at it again. He basically says, "You want some cheap pickups? These don't suck." Still--I trust them to be reasonably decent.

Good enough for me. I picked up the last set. They'll be going into my son's first guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
