These pickups are fantastic. Ordered a loaded pickguard w centerpunch pups w coil split option built in. I can't say enough good things about this purchase or of my (2) previous purchases. Dylan is very knowledgeable in his craft, and his workmanship and attention to detail really shines thru.
Looks good, sounds great!
Putting it together not hard
Ordered an H-S-H through his site. Dylan himself was available over the site chat, and directed me on what to spec out, based on what he had gathered from me through chat. The original pickups were great, just geared more towards bluegrass / jazz / nashville type stuff... The new pickups are GREAT! They have no problem driving the stack just like I want, but keep wonderful mid-range clarity under crunch. I also had a Gilmore switch installed after conferring with Dylan over chat. Best choice ever for this setup! The tonal possibilities are a little more than I know what to do with, since every tone is more than usable... This is now my favorite guitar... I love what you do! If I didn't suck, I would post a YouTube video.
THANK YOU!
Glad I bought this, it sounds great.
Right off: great pickups, great wiring etc. No complaints about the product or service, the process on my end was a comedy of errors. I had some unique wiring requests on this, so the process took a while. Leave it to me to get a guitar direct from the manufacturer with "other than standard" pickup spacing on the pickguard. I'm sure most can relate with finally getting something you have been waiting for and then not being able to complete the job until you get a different part (like every job around the house requires 4 trips to Lowes or Home Depot).
When I finally got the pickguard that fit, it was an easy swap of the electronics and a couple of solder joints. Completely blown away at the difference between the Super 8's and the Fender Shawbuckers that were in the guitar (which was a special order direct from the Fender Mod Shop). The common theme with all of the Dylan pickups I have ordered is clarity, every note comes through and nothing is muddy. Very happy with these and the others I have purchased.
