Oil City Experiences?

Does anyone know if there are prices for sets of pickups from Oil City - i.e. A bridge and a neck -,or is it just price per pickup, regardless if you're buying one or two?

I was going to write RTFW but, when I checked on the black and white and red all over 2018 OCP site, some of the product pages were not working properly. 

The prices for multiples lurk in the Options pull down menu on each product page. 

Unfortunately, on the Caliber 5/3 page, any single pickup is forty odd quid but the menu also quotes the calibrated set of three as forty odd quid. Bargain!

PS: I actually enjoy chatting to customers on the phone ... sad eh? Perhaps I don't get out enough lol.

I imagine that it might help a maker to hear why a customer has chosen a particular pickup model.

There are no separate prices for sets ... simply order neck and bridge of your chosen pickups. :-) 

PS: I actually enjoy chatting to customers on the phone ... sad eh? Perhaps I don't get out enough lol.

I'd offer to swap jobs because my job is all talking to customers on the phone and I'm sure I'd enjoy making pickups more but sadly I don't have the skills required.

Will be ordering a set of Mighty 90s probably tomorrow. Look forward to them

I had a music shop for some years, and I suppose I miss that 'chatting to customers over a coffee, on a Saturday morning' thing. I feel actually chatting to customers and finding out what they really want/need ... what their amp rigs are, what environments they play in is far more valuable than just offering loads of meaningless build options on my site.

Think it's better I call you and describe my setup? I'm basically just looking for a p90 for a Gibson les Paul to have variety from my other lp clone with humbuckers.
