Incoming: A pair of angled-offset Cavalier-style pickups...

Post by Ledergeist »

Found on the 'bay tonight with less than an hour to go. Plenty of pics to show they're the real deal. Seller listed both at equal specs which is fine, I'm going to drop them in my Cav-body and see how it goes. Then I'll have 24 pole pieces to mess with...
If these are not my thing, they'll be in the Marketplace in a few weeks.

I wonder how those would sound in an ASAT special bridge spot?

Please post photos when they're in the Cav body! Doesn't it have Gretsch pickups (or something similar) now?

Bah!... the seller wrote me that he only has 1 pickup. The other listing was a duplicate... BOooooo. Lame.
I'm still getting the one, so it's something anyway. It's never been used either, so thats nice. It will find duty in the bridge position.
It currently has Duncan Mini-buckers, and I really like the one in the Neck position now. I'm probably a week or so away from getting some pics up with the stock p/u installed.

i have a Cav humbucker MFD in the bridge position in my ASAT. Ballsy as hell and needs the treble to be tamed but a great compliment to the large MFD in the neck.
