Title: Look What I Found on eBay
Post by: lbpesq on August 28, 2017, 08:05:16 PM

Just picked this up on eBay.  I remember a buddy of mine got one of these kits and installed it on his ES-330 back in the mid-70's.  Unfortunately, he is no longer with us, so I can't ask him about them.  Anyone here ever had any experience with these?


Bill, tgo

I have a couple of those sets...yet  to try 'em.
I was tempted to bid; glad you got it (and cheap!).

I put one on my old ES355 back when they were for sale. I may still have the big magnets around.

David, how did you like the sound of the hot-rodded pickup?

From the picture, it looks they are designed to help you sing better.

I wonder if it's the same effect as the extra magnets I got from Rick for my old late 60s Starfire. They goosed up the sound a bit.
