My good old Oil Blitz spirit humbuckers will be featured (among other industry leading PAF type pickups) in the October edition of the US Vintage Guitar magazine. We are giving away a pair to subscribers, and the mag will feature our first US glossy advertising
:-)
We have been selling more and more in the US, so thought it was about time we were formally introduced! The issue featuring the 'PAF Party' will be made available free in e form, so any of you who want to check out an interesting mag for nowt ... heads up! it features a lot more than just the usual vintage suspects ... there have been interesting features on 'superstrats', pedal shootouts, pointy metal guitars ... and all sorts.
Worth a look ... as I say ... for nowt
;-)

The young do not know enough to be prudent, therefore they attempt the impossible - and achieve it, generation after generation.

But how do the pickup covers match those on a 58 Les Paul? This seems to be something playing on the minds of our cork sniffing oriented brethren. (Some "journalist" in Guitarist even goes on about this FFS).
Nice one. Oil City are the best value out there IMHO.

I find difficulty in justifying features on a pickup that ridiculously inflate the price but make not just negligible difference to the sound ... but none at all. People are of course free to chose the covers they want for their pickups ... and I am happy to supply uncovered units so that those for whom it matters can fit what they like. My pickups are suited to those who want to play their instruments rather than boast about the labels or the shape of their cover.
