Golden Age Parsons Street Humbuckers

I have an old Ibanez Les Paul copy pre law suit and wanted to restore it to more classic vibe. after 20 years of DiMarzio pickups I was wanted the traditional look and sound. I was not disappointed. The wiring matches the original and dropped in with no difficulties. When I played it through my amp the sound was excellent both clean and overdriven. Great job on a great product.

I put the PUs in my own project PRS style guitar. They sound great when
played clean especially when I put down the tone control the neck pickup
is awesome for jazz soli!!! They sounds verry good when played overdrive too.
With Sky Blue Od. Mad Professor I have a amasing blues sounds and a top lead sounds with my Riot distortion.
The finish is great! Five stars! Thank you Stew Mac!

I just put the neck and bridge pair (both Alnico 2) in my 1972 SG replica (mahogany neck and body, brazilian rosewood fretboard).

I am amazed by the sound of these pickups, especially because they cost like half the price of an equivalent Gibson. They sound great when played clean or with overdrive, but do keep in mind that, for being a non-wax-potted pickup set, it gets very sensitive to microphonic feedback when used with heavy distortion. The neck pickup is very punchy and tonally well-balanced, great for clean solos and blues. The bridge one is great for hard rock overdrive, with a lot of treble, sounding quite Angus Young-ish to my ears. I loved them both.

The finish is also flawless. They came with matching golden mounting screws, adjustment springs and a protective plastic film on the face of the pickup. When I removed the protectitive film, the cover was beautiful, shiny and polished like a mirror.

Five stars is not enough for these pickups. Great job, StewMac!

I recently bought and replaced the stock humbuckers in the Epi Les Paul I've had forever with the Alinco 5 & 6 as suggested. What a difference!! My wife didn't know I had them changed out and said WOW is that the same guitar!? It sounds so much better now. These are some great pick ups.

Love the sound of the Parson Street Humbuckers. Everything I used came from Stu-Mac and service was fantastic.

I recently purchased a very used Epiphone Les Paul at a garage sale. Needed sprucing up with new nut, etc... and decided that new pickups might help the sound a bit. The playability after some work was very good. I purchased the Golden Age Parson Street humbuckers and the sound is incredible!! The neck pickup came through damaged so my tech could only install the bridge PU at first. The sound clarity and quality of that one alone was amazing. When the replacement neck PU arrived and was installed the whole range of sound is now superb!! Over my long career of buying and selling just about every great guitar ever made I now have this cheap Epi that, with these pickups, sounds as good or better than any I've owned. Thanks for a great product - and service too!!

I received the Parsons Street humbuckers I ordered in record time. I've been using them for a while now and I'm well satisfied with them. The Les Paul those pup's are installed in has had three sets of pup's in the last four years, and none delivered the sound that was desired. I'm pleased with the character of the Parson Street pup's: a recognizably vintage tone. These pup's have opened up this guitar to new possibilities. And the price is remarkable given the performance.

These are really good pickups for the money; used them on this Spalted Maple Les Paul. Beautiful sound.

I put these pickups in a Chinese Les Paul that had pretty good pickups to begin with. Amazing! I had to get a replacement for the bridge pickup, Stew Mac's service is second to none, so not a problem. The main thing I noticed about these pickups is the air and increased sensitivity they bring to both chords and single notes. Extra power in a pickup is not really a good thing unless you're playing metal. The vintage design allows you to really hear the wood and overtones going on. Highly recommended.

I like this pickups!!!!! Than you StewMac!!! Big deal! Respect from Ukraine.
