Tons and tons of pickups (everything must go) (first price drop) Pictures added
What's Hot
I have a box that I put all my spare pickups, ones made by mistake, prototypes, b stock, experiments, etc. It's been accumulating over the last 2 and a half years, and it currently looks like this
It's well overdue, but it's time for a complete clear out, I'll be offering these at 20% off RRP to begin.
Here's a photo of the lot laid out. If there's any closer detail you want I'll take closer snaps of individuals.
Starting at the back left, moving right and downwards.
- 9.5k humbucker bridge of 42.5 AWG wire (basically a slightly thicker sounding PAF styled bridge) SOLD
- Chameleon bridge (same polarity and wind direction as neck for HSH set up)
https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/chameleon-humbuckers-the-most-versatile-humbuckers- Conflagration neck pickup prototype (Strat tone in a humbucker package) - this one sounded great but was just a little too weak. https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/conflagration-humbucker-set-huge-sounding-bridge-with-a-single-coil-like-neck SOLD
- Sea Smoke bridge https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/p90-sized-pickups/products/sea-smoke-a-modern-take-on-a-vintage-style-set SOLD
- A one off PAF replica utilising vintage accurate parts I ordered in to test from the top US supplier. Vintage accurate cover, butyrate bobbins, long legged baseplate, maple spacer, 42 AWG plain enamel wire, slightly mismatched winds, 7.5k, 49.2mm string spacing, not wax potted, etc etc. As accurate as the other top name PAF replicas. £75 SOLD
- Solar Flare humbucker https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/solar-flare-bridge-humbucker b stock bobbins - had a little incident in the wax opening it up slightly on the seam. Covered to make the (only cosmetic) issue invisible. SOLD

Thanks for the offer though, do really appreciate it.
~2nd row~
- Seymour Duncan JB JBJ (wound by MJ apparently) trembucker sized - bought with one working coil, I've wound the other to spec. I'm not 100% on the wind direction, so the red and green wires may need swapping over in the cavity wiring. £45
- Chameleon prototype set https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/chameleon-humbuckers-the-most-versatile-humbuckers - One of the final sets I made before finalising the design, my thoughts on them were - low output humbucking mode is a little too powerful for the intended contrast between low and full output modes; P90 modes are a little too bright; single coil and P90 modes are not RWRP (they function fine together, just with hum). £95 for the pair
- Chameleon neck prototype - https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/chameleon-humbuckers-the-most-versatile-humbuckers - the single coil modes were a little thin and there wasn't quite enough difference between the P90/PAF/high output humbucker modes. £45
- Vintage style heavy formvar Strat pickup. Vintage '50s single coil wind with alnico 3 rods for extra warmth and smoothness. SOLD
- Double slug solar flare https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/solar-flare-bridge-humbucker Another b stock pickup whacked together with a couple of less than perfect slug bobbins. These are two alnico rodded bobbins, so this will sound really clear and punchy. SOLD
- Conflagration neck pickup prototype (Strat tone in a humbucker package) - this one sounded great but was just a little too weak (same as the previous one, with longer rods to add a touch more output) https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/conflagration-humbucker-set-huge-sounding-bridge-with-a-single-coil-like-neck SOLD
~3rd row~
- Conflagration bridge (used prototype). Final design, the prototype I used to confirm it. Gold screws. https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/conflagration-humbucker-set-huge-sounding-bridge-with-a-single-coil-like-neck SOLD
- Dust Storm humbucker sized P90 neck https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/dust-storm-humbucker-sized-p90-high-output-p90-set. Made to test my new open covers. Brand new.
- Cirrostratus bridge and my next Tele neck pickup (as of yet unnamed). They were made for the London show, but I ended up not taking a Tele. https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/telecaster-sized-pickups/products/cirrostratus The neck is shimmery and punchy, just like a Strat neck. SOLD
- Dust Storm set (used prototype). Final design, the prototype I used to confirm it. https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/p90-sized-pickups/products/dust-storm-high-output-p90-set-1 SOLD
- Solar Flare (b stock). A little messy around the slug coil, otherwise perfect. https://www.alegree.co.uk/collections/humbucker-sized-pickups/products/solar-flare-bridge-humbucker SOLD
- 9k of 44 AWG wire with alnico 3 magnet. Low output, warm and straight up smooth Jazz tone. Used briefly for a video. SOLD
