I am impressed with the Golden Age humbuckers I ordered. I have spent five times as much on pickups before and never been this happy. 1997 Les Paul, and these have made it sound the way I have always wanted it to.

I just wanted to comment on the Golden Age humbucker pickups that I just purchased from your company. I am so pleased and impressed with the tonal quality — and for under $50 a pickup!!! I installed them in my 2002 Gibson Les Paul Standard, and I am now getting the tone I was looking for.
