I’m considering getting a set of custom pickups from the Seymour Duncan Custom Shop, but I’m not sure where to start. Has anyone here had experience with ordering custom pickups from them? I’d love to know about the options available, how the ordering process works, and any particular features that stood out for you. Also, how do they compare to their standard pickups?
Here are a few points I’m curious about:
Sound Profiles: What tonal qualities did you achieve?
Ordering Experience: How straightforward was the process?
Custom Options: What kind of customizations did you choose, and how did they impact your sound?
Value for Money: Do you think the investment was worth it compared to off-the-shelf pickups?
Thanks in advance for any insights you can share! Looking forward to hearing your experiences!
I’ve been using Seymour Duncan Custom Shop pickups for years, and the quality is top-notch. The attention to detail in the craftsmanship really stands out, influencing both tone and response when playing.
I’ve had mixed feelings about the Custom Shop pickups. They are great, but I’ve found some inconsistencies in output levels across different models. Has anyone else noticed this?
Seymour Duncan Custom Shop pickups really bring life to the guitar! The tonal response is inspiring, whether you’re playing clean or overdriven. Highly recommend them!
I get that! But I believe you really get what you pay for with these pickups. They tend to last longer and sound better than many cheaper alternatives.
I joke around with my friends that Seymour Duncan must be using magic spells for their pickups to sound that good! But honestly, there’s a lot of science behind it too!
I’ve had a fantastic experience with Seymour Duncan’s Custom Shop pickups, especially the ‘Custom 5.’ It offers a fantastic balance of warmth and clarity.
