Full Description
Two fat, full neck and mid pickups mixed with a hotter bridge. A rich bass and tempered bell-like trebles make this a set for the bluesman and rocker alike!
The City Limits set uses A5 magnets with our "Modified Vintage Stagger" allowing for great string to string balance on a wide range of instruments.
Each pickup is fully wax potted to reduce any microphonic feedback, and comes supplied with screws, latex height adjustment tubing and an installation guide.

Good experience from "Surfaris" before encouraged me to try these on my Squier JV '62 (export) from 1983. Other "mods" are limited to new set of ABM-saddles and "Bright Lava Red"-pickguard from Crazy Parts (both German made).
Maybe the very first time ever, I found this bridge pickup "ballsy" enough, but still with good balance between all three. This split of A2/A5 magnets in bridge pickup is usually seen in much more pricy sets. After playin' these over four months now, there's not been any frustration with bridge pickup - like so many times before.
Furthermore, neck and middle pickups sound really "Texan" to me.
My pick ups were as described, very fair pricing ! My interaction with Personal was very professional and jery needs and concerns ! Add the pick ups sound amazing !
I recently installed the City Limits bridge pickup and Classic Blues neck and middle pickups in place of the Fender Tex-Mex pickups on my Strat. The difference is like night and day, the City Limits pickup is definitely punchier than the Fender pickup, with a wee bit more sustain as well. All in all, a good choice for the blues/rock player looking for a little more oomph.
Great sounding pickups. Easy to follow along soldering instructions included.
Awesome guitar pickups for Blues and Rock. Creamy guitar tones. I highly recommend them.
