Never mind geezer, I'll make sure you get a good value deal in future :-) 

I try to look after me customers. 

I have been so damned busy I didn't get round to announcing the sale till a bit late this year ... I have been without my regular assistant for a month or so and it has meant I've been rushed off my trotters.

Aaaargh.... just saw this. 

I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy PRS 85/15 uncovered pups (not cheap but you can't buy them new... the split cleans are great - best of the 57/08 and 59/09 pups, known quantity as I know what they sound like and will fit perfectly) but this is also very tempting (Alnico IV Nightfighters sound cool). Argh lol...

Ordered a set of scrapyard dogs for my recently acquired '79 tokai Les Paul reborn, cheers mate

Can't wait for these to arrive. Ordered a Forces Sweetheart set and a Scrapyard Dog Plus set in the sale, then I've spent so long annoying Ash that I'm going to end up ordering some extra things outside the sale haha.

Once I've got them all fitted I will try and post some demos. I've got the equipment to do some proper ones if it's just audio, though I think people prefer videos so I'll have to try and figure out how to record that on my phone and sync it to the direct audio.

Booooo...missed it.

OilCityPickups

There will be more offers early in the new year :-)

Drew_TNBD

Saucy. Also I'm still up for that trade you proposed a year or so ago if you're still game - no worries if not like. I've got a new guitar incoming that I reckon needs a bit o' oil in it!!

OilCityPickups

What type of guitar and what sort of sound are you after?

Drew_TNBD

It's a Rally Les Paul. Saw it on eBay, couldn't resist!

I like high-gain progressive rock and metal tones. So chimey cleans are necessary, as are tight riffs. Not looking for anything too fuzzy... I dislike it with some pickups that are too high output, and when you do a palm mute it just goes all farty.

If I had to put it in a video....

OilCityPickups

lets go PM ... I have a few ideas we could chew over

Drew_TNBD

Yeah cool, fire me some thoughts over, just gonna pop to bed and get my regular 3 hours sleep coz I'm a bloody insomniac it seems!

*grumble*

OilCityPickups

Fire some tomorrow :-)

I'm complete Luddite so took new Scrapyards for my '79 tokai les Paul reborn to Phil at Bristol Guitar Tech, he rang me up this morning raving about the sound, think he's going to be in touch for some pickups himself
