  • @TheGuitarWeasel I'm loving the new website - so much better than the previous one and much more in keeping with the quality of your products. The speed is fine on my PC considering the quantity of images and graphics. However, you might want to remove the last paragraph on the description of the Cow-Tron Classics - I don't think they are suitable for Black Country Metal - I reckon that slipped in from another pickup description  ;)

    Right, I'm off to order a Wapping Warf and maybe a Diamond Geezer too!

  • I'm still not sure that the phone number is right. Don't you have to dial the 20 part of the 208 for outer London? If I dial the number that you have on the site from France it doesn't work, unless I add the 20 before the 8.

    Any chance you could extend that sale for a day or so until I've figured out which pickups to order?   =)

    Amazingly fast turnaround Ash! - I received the Royal Mail card on Wednesday after a Monday order. I couldn't get to the Post Office to pick up until Saturday. The guitar's not even ready yet

  • New site is a big improvement IMHO. However, there's something not quite right with the "scroll-boxes" on the accessories page. They don't scroll, so can't see what's on offer, and there doesn't seem to be a way to see all the items within each "category". And they certainly don't work on Safari' Chrome not so bad, mind you.

    p.s. enjoy your break. Don't forget the holiday tat competition (must be less than 1€/$/£/other), and can't wait to try out the stone tones.

    Cheers.!

    Bought some Masterwound TubeSnakes at Christmas and they are phenomenal!

     I was too slow for the masterwound sale as I'm interested in the ... Winterizers.
    Yah, boo! I nabbed those Winterizer II humbuckers. 3 In my opinion, the Guitar&Bass magazine review is an accurate reflection of those pickups. 

    I have not tried the Cow'Tron model. I cannot comment on them ... other than to wonder aloud how a web customer would specify the baseplate and mounting screw format. 
    Be seeing you.

    There are two distinct versions of the CowTron classic which is Gretsch style surface mounted (as seen in the image)

    And the CowTron HB which as the HB signifies is both full Gibson humbucker sized, and 'English mounted')

    I'm not sure whether this post should be public or private? It can always be edited into oblivion, I suppose.


    The Winterizer II humbuckers are in a PRS S2 Singlecut. Finances dictate that I may have to sell this guitar. Since I will not recoup the value of your pickups this way, the stock G&B-made #7 humbuckers will be reinstated before the guitar goes.

    My enquiries about the Cow-Tron HB and your experimental Gain-Plus were in connection with a Hamer XT Echotone. This excuse for a guitar is currently incomplete whilst I decide whether to buy it an Earvana shelf nut. (MSRP over one third of what I paid for the guitar!

    Um, possibly, though if anything it's most likely I'd be looking for a Winterizer II for the bridge and a standard Winterizer for the neck.

    Perhaps, we can help each other out? First, I need to nudge Lord Seven into action.
