Private Stock bridge
Kris and I decided on the Private Stock bridge pickup for a custom built guitar from luthier Steve J. Mash. Sort of a Melody Maker shape with a 25" scale, humbucker in bridge, tulipwood body, maple neck. The Private Stock bridge is a very versatile, dynamic pickup usable in a range of styles. Chose a black uncovered pickup, I'm most pleased with its versatility.
This is paired with a custom neck pickup, a unique design from Pegcity. To match the timbre, no hum, and power of the bridge, Kris built a stacked magnet single-coil sized design for this position. So, it's noiseless and pairs super well with bridge.
A great solution and a wide range of sounds available c/o a basic 1 volume, 1 tone, and a 3-way switch.

Classic 59’s
Just installed a set of Classic 59’s into an Epiphone Sheraton ii. What an upgrade! These pickups look and sound incredible! When chording there is remarkable note clarity across all the strings and single notes sing and cut through the mix. They are also very pick sensitive and clean up nicely when the volume is rolled back. I’ve always liked this guitar but now I love it, it just sounds huge! Thanks Kris! Great communication, easy to order, amazing build quality and fast shipping! I feel like I will be ordering a Peg City strat set in the future!

Amazing in the neck position
I recently added a Fatboy Special neck pickup to one of my main guitars, and was blown away by its clarity and silky smooth sound. On high gain its crystal clear and articulate, on clean it has a beautiful presence and projection. Highly suggested to anyone who values a well rounded, clean neck tone!

Don't think twice, buy em!
I've been playing guitar for 30yrs. Playing heavy metal for over 20yrs and I can honestly say I have never felt such a substantial difference in a pick up swap......until I installed a set of Widows. I replaced an EMG 81/85 set with Angry Widows and was instantly blown away by how organic, articulate and more defined my tone was. So then I swapped out a Seymour Duncan Full Shred and JB set for some Angry Widows and it was the same result, my tone took a step in the direction I wanted, but the EMGs and Duncan's just continually fell short no matter what combination. The support, sales and relationship I now have with Peg City is something you just can't get with big manufacturers. Don't think twice, you might miss out on your perfect tone

Love my new Classic 59’s
The Classic 59’s were an excellent set of pickups for my Les Paul kit build. They sound great! You get all of the tones and responsiveness you would expect from PAF. Highly recommend if you are looking to get that classic PAF sound without breaking the bank. I can't wait to start my next Pegcity pickup powered project!
I've had a couple of Pegcity Pickups installed in my guitars. Every time, Kris has delivered in spades... I have a PRS Swamp Ash Special SE that was okay sounding. I decided on the Rambler Set since I loved the Superclutches. Kris matched up this set and boy does this guitar sing now. I can't put this one down.. The tone is phenomenal and when I have all three pickups engaged you can forget about time... truly a great set.
Ordered a firebird pickup after consulting with Kris about what I was wanting and he recommended an Alnico 4 and a custom wind for a les paul I was building out. Unit came in and sounds and looks absolutely amazing! Top quality, great looks, love the engraved back plate. Handmade right here in the great white north! Thanks Kris!
Very vintage‑sounding — I love them, even though I was initially aiming for something a bit more contemporary. I thought Alnico V would give me less brightness. That said, these pickups sound absolutely beautiful.
The neck pickup is especially punchy and articulate.
The bridge pickup is quite bright, but the good news is that both respond incredibly well to the tone knob (and the tone switch). You can roll the tone back pretty far and they still remain articulate and punchy.
With these two bad boys, you’ll never run out of sonic options.
Bravo!
