Alright then, Lil & I are in - she's as interested in learning to play it as I am! It's not due in stock for a month though, but if that doesn't affect any potential "deal" of sorts with Thomann then the wait's not problem for us. Linky for the model (if needed?)

an amazing price
how good are wilkinson Alnico humbickers does anyone know?
I would say that they're decent - better than the ceramic affairs that appear on less well specced instruments. How decent will depend on the model. I don't know what differences there are in coils for the A5 pickups (some will be similar to vintage PAF spec, some will be hotter), but some have nickel-silver covers and baseplates, and some have a different metal which might affect the tone.
The Wilkinson MVCs in my Vintage Lemon Drop were okay (nickel-silver covers), but improved markedly when I changed the A5 magnets to A2. The result was a sweeter and clearer tone. I'm not a fan of bridge pickups because I often find them sharp and harsh, but the change in this case actually made it usable to my ears - brighter than the neck, of course, but still sweet. The neck is creamy and smooth.
