Rabs Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Interesting.. I have looked in to the market of pickup rings hoping to find something just a bit different and there really isn't much choice out there.. These are ok.. Nothing to shout about, but ok.. I do wonder why no one really offers anything different. https://www.anomalyguitar.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Well I'm all for a bit of creativity and trying something new but I can't say I like either of those designs at all. Sorry to be 'negative' but I really find them to be aesthetically unappealing. Pip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say put them on a LP but the moderns ones could be interesting for say a more pointy or modern looking guitar like a Warlock or something.. I think also we are so used to seeing the standard design that anything else would look strange.. But its interesting someone is actually trying something new.

jdgm Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 We obviously need......(drum roll)...... https://www.pickuprings.com/pickup_rings Or...... http://www.lmii.com/products/mostly-not-wood/electric-hardware/pickup-rings And the ££/$$ to pay for some exotic custom stuff. I have 2 guitars with wooden pickup rings and knobs; luxury! I'd love some mahogany rings for my mahogany Gibson, would look great but the plastic ones do the job! Edit - Duh....CITES......... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe im making the wrong items out of wood? :) A pair of Les Paul rings made from Snakewood for a paltry $249.99.... Perhaps they meant SnakeOil? I loved this endorsement, though; "Thank you for making an excellent product that definitely complements my guitar and indeed improves the sustain..." Pip. EDIT : Somewhat tangential but I liked the look of the silver guitar so, curiosity getting the better of me, I had a google. Seth Baccus Guitars. Beautiful craftsmanship but definitely Not Cheap...

Well anyone silly enough to pay that and believe it somehow improves the performance of the guitar deserves what they get I guess? :) They don't even come with any finish on them :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdgm Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Yes but these are made out of.....Tonewoods. Dey tone rings, see? Improve sustain, indefinable quality of brown-sound woodiness etc.... And that is.....absolutely true... [lol].... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
