Z-coils in ESP

Sat Aug 15, 2015 6:06 am

This is not my project but obviously someone's project. Buy the z-coils and get a guitar for free. I posted it here more of a project curiosity than as a PSA. Someone thinks these pickups are cool. :ugeek:

:shocked003: I'm not sure about the Floyd rose and that whatever guard around the pickups. For how much could you get the Z coils for without the wood? (Retail I guess)

Thanks Craig. That helps a lot. I think I was looking at that page earlier and there weren't that many options. Now question is the zinc going to sound different on the pole pieces than the nickel ones that are currently in the production?

No, you probably will not hear a difference. You will see a difference, though.

Thanks Craig, the esthetics don't really concern me :-)
