New Pickup Model: RH-100/90

Postby raygun85 » Wed Apr 14, 2010 7:11 pm

Some years back I had one of those Dillion DMG-75 Mosrite-clones. It was equipped with standard P-90 pickups and, although they sounded good, they just didn't have the 60s Mosrite tone that I wanted so bad. I've talked to other players who owned a P-90 equipped Mosrite-clone who felt the same way. So we decided to mount our RH-100 coils into a P-90 cover and viola! We even went a step further by including coil-taps and a "hot" setting (both activated by a DPDT push-pull switch) that gives them a little bit more crunch. Base models start at $149.95 for a set of two. +$15 for switchable "hot" versions and +$25 for coil-taps. Check out the video below to see them in action...

Nice video - these pickups sound great! I especially like the "hot" setting. There are going to be a lot of happy Dillion, Eastwood and Wilson Bros owners out there.

At any rate, a very nice option to get your Mosrite sound :)

Spill the beans Mel, which one of your tri-powered guitars are those going in.

They'll be going in the Meshugga-Mark. Currently, with the Hallmark pickups, it's got on/off switches for each pickup. My plan is to use the M3s with on/off/on switches to get a wider range of sounds. I'm also very interested in seeing how the pickups sound with the TBX-based bass roll-off I've got in that guitar.

Once I've got them in, I'll figure out how to do a demo video.
