True North PAF reproduction

Great Customer Service and fantastic Pickup

I've been swapping around pickups lately and trying some custom winding companies. I have an SG that's been through a lot of pickups now. Previously. my favourites were Gibson 57 Classics because I like the character of Alnico II and medium-low output. (had also just pulled out some Fishman Fluence Scott Lepage Pickups). I realized I needed to try some unpotted pickups because I was really missing that more open and harmonicaly rich top end. I had just bought some Sigil 59 Holy Grails. They were exactly what I was dreaming of. I liked them so much, I had to steal the neck pickup to put in my Tele. I thought I would try another reputable Canadian winder to replace the neck pickup to go with the 58 in the bridge. I saw the PegCity Pickups Sale and found the True North to be the PAF that fit the bill of Alnico2 and no potting. I was a little worried that the 7.7K output may be a bit more winds than I would want to match my 7.7K bridge pickup. Thankfully, the True North came with and detailed info card. There was a some sort of mixup because the pickup came wax-potted and stated it measured 8.7K (but this was accurately documented on its info card). I contacted Kris and he immediately acknowledged that someone had made a mistake. He made another pickup with the correct specs and sent it out to me the very next day. Amazingly, it still arrived before Christmas! Absolutely awesome customer service. He was so quick to make things right and make sure I got exactly what I had ordered. It honestly matches so well with my other custom pickup and sounds so harmonically rich, detailed, open and dynamic. Great chime and cleans up so well with 50s wiring. It's a beautiful pickup. I think there deserves to be a low-wind version set as well... Like Lollar does for his Imperials. (maybe somewhere around 6.9-7.3K) But yeah, I've been through alot of humbuckers (probably way too many), and this is the best this guitar has ever sounded. I can't wait to try it with my other amps that aren't at home right now...

Fantastic pickups

Installed these on my 2024 Les Paul Standard, these are fantastic pickups and sound great for blues and blues rock. I ordered the uncovered double creams and man they look good. Will definitely order from Pegcity again

Great addition to my SG

This pickup is everything I was hoping it would be. Amazing with some overdrive.
