ALL SOLD: PLEASE DELETE
I fell in love with Manlius pickups a few year ago. And bought four (yes, count em, FOUR) extra pairs, in hopes of putting them in future builds, more Les Pauls, etc.
Well... 3 years, 1 new kid, 1 new house, and 2 new jobs later: I've got no new builds, no new guitars, and these wonderful pickups are collecting dust.
I'm keeping two sets in my HH Super Tele and a Les Paul, but other than that, these need to go to a good home.
For those that don't know, Manlius (Mick McGuinnes) pickups fly way under the radar. He's a one man boutique shop in upstate NY, and his winds can go head to head with the big boys, at a fraction of the price. If you've ever wanted to step up into to the boutique PAF clone world, but don't want to pony up the cash, here's your chance.
Vintage-correct details:
• Braided Leads
• Alnico IV Magnets
• Plain Enamel 42AWG wire
• Long leg baseplates
• Nickel Silver Covers
• Maple Spacer
Brief tone descriptors:
Landmark: Medium vintage output, cleanest, clearest, brighter wind
Fat Diane: Medium-hot, thicker sounding wind
Hot Rod 59: Hotter side of vintage, edging in on 9K, fat and rocking!
