the most recent youtube comment has me wondering what the fuck is wrong with people.

Be Careful before you order. I have installed 15 - 20 sets of Strat pickups over the years. These ship with flat bottom screws and the holes in the fiber pickup base are closed with wax and not pre-threaded for the screws. GFS should ship these with self-tapping tapered screws. I have good hands and worked on a lot of guitars. This goof is a bad one for GFS since it sets up a customer for damaged pickup winding wire and other annoyance in installing a set of pickups. All they had to do was think it through and use tapered screws during development. Stupid GFS mistake and without a decent answer by email, I will return the unused pups for a refund. Customers want parts that install simply and without makeshift fixes.


this guy couldn't be assed to drill 2 little fucking holes for the mounting screws. fucking seriously ? how do you damage the winding wire drilling 2 tiny fucking holes on the ear tabs of the pickup? and how do you not have a hand drill if you have such good hands and worked on a lot of guitars? or fuck a screw driver. you don't even need a fucking hand drill. you have to poke a hole thru fucking wax and fibre

Same people who want glass domes around gorilla cages.

Somebody is going to complain anyway. If GFS do the holes in the wax, there will be someone complaining about that. Because GFS are stupid

They look pretty wonky as singlecoils, but I kinda like it
