We're not a mass production outfit, and there will be more pickups in stock soon...but we want to do something special for Christmas, so the planning needs to start now.

NEW & NOW AVAILABLE: Our V.A.F.. The perfection of months of scientific experimentation aimed at achieving a recipe for a P.A.F.-style pickup the captures the tone of one of the best ever put to vinyl: the P.A.F. in Edward Van Halen's 1958 Gibson korina Flying V guitar.

Each is hand-made by Paul McKeever, not mass-produced, so get yours from the first batch. More are coming, but expect several weeks' wait for a second batch once we're out of stock.
