Any sounds, videos or pics of this whilst it's in your care?

do a demo wanknutter if you did.

Yeah, I have a set of the Axesrus pickups. I haven't played them through a loud amp yet, so I'm reserving judgement. They sound nice to my ear, though.

So cheap for the set that they're worth a try.

I have a set of reissues in my jazzmaster, they don't really sound like vintage ones but I love em.
I wired it up with a 500k pot.

Apologies for the bump, but great news for those of us waiting on a decent quality WRHB clone without having to sacrifice all dignity and common sense and get in touch with Telenator; Lollar's on the case. As long as they're not crazy expensive, I see a 72 thinline in my future...
