SOLD - Oil City Pickups Hybrid 2012: Scrapyard Dog plus bridge Nightfighter alnico 4 neck (NEW)

edited October 2022 in Parts £
I picked these up as part of the Oil City Fretboard only deal a few months back, but circumstances have changed and I have (and will) be unable to use them for the foreseeable, so I'm happy to move them on for exactly what I paid for them, so someone else can take advantage of the same deal and they do not stay sat in my parts cupboard!

I have a set of the Alnico 5 Scrapyard Dogs Plus' in one of my other guitars and they are amazing pickups.

Text taken from the original thread:

We are known for our medium output humbuckers, our 'PAFs on steroids' if you like - Goldilocks pickups: not too hot and not too cold.

The Scrapyard dog Plus (Alnico 5) has all the bite and agression of a good T-Top with added power and girth. The Nightfighter has the classic alnico 4 sweetness of a good PAF but again with more clout. 

These will only be available with black bobbins in 52mm bridge/50mm neck and uncovered. They will all be wired four conductor. 

These are brand new and never installed, so £119 + P&P to mainland UK, like what I paid.

    The Nightfighter 4 neck is really good. I've started putting high output ceramic pickups in bridge positions though. I never thought I'd be that guy but here we are

  • I’ve got this pair in my Les Paul and that neck pickup is lovely. They’re both great but the neck really stands out.

  • The Scrapyard Dog plus set I have in one of my guitars transformed it to be honest. I liked they way it played, but thought it sounded a bit sterile.The “Dogs” brought it to life, so I like them!

    Apparently, the SYD+ was temporarily soldered into a PRS S2 Singlecut so that a friend could A/B test it against his Gibson '61 Burstbuckers.*

    The NF4 remained in the box. Never seen solder. Both humbuckers still awaiting a suitable host … or offers of money. ;)



    * The friend declined the OCP SYD+ … mainly because it wasn't black and cream. Duh! Instead, he had an SH-1N '59 with A4 magnet and my Seymour Duncan Brobucker.

    I reckon the NF4 I have is going into my s2 this afternoon. I need to close the door on the long legged mystery Bare Knuckle...
