Ibanez super 58 pickups

Hey folks. Been a while ;-)

I'm in the market for some proper humbuckers.

I've been toying with the idea of installing a mix between a Humbucker and a P90 or something similar but the darn pickup prices are ridiculous!

Then, I came accros these Ibanez super 58 pickups for a very good price. (https://thundercloudmusic.co.za/products/ibanez-super-58-pickup-neck-and-bridge-chrome-or-gold?_pos=49&_sid=a32632abb&_ss=r)

(On that note - anyone know thundercloud music store? Reliable?)

And then I found this vid ( and they sound amazing!

But utube can be sneaky, so my question, does anybody have these pups installed, or experience with them?

Fanx!

From what I hear, yes they're legit - though the website might not always accurately reflect actual stock. AFAIK there's a actual storefront in Fish Hoek, Cape Town.

Thundercloud in Fish Hoek are a fine bunch of people. Great service!

Thanks Gents!

A new friend, whom i've only met on Whatsapp, just offered me a Epiphone Bridge Pick Up - BHC Humbucker for a whole zero rand. 😀
So, i'll be testing that as well, but i'm very keen on these Ibanez pups.

Thanks for the input!

The price is right 😆!

I recently found a jackson HB I forgot about, think I'll have to find a guitar to stick it into soon 😝
