I can echo what the description says. These don't sound like the cheap ceramic pickups we've all endured. I have the Wilkinson alnicos in another guitar and thought I'd try these to upgrade the base model Pacifica (HSS). Neck and middle sound great, though I can't comment on the bridge as i haven't used it. They may not be quite as rounded a sound as the alnicos but the difference is subtle. The stock Yamaha pickups were not 'bad ' but quite modern sounding, these Wilkinson have added some vintage vibe which is exactly what i was looking for. In an H SS guitar the Vanson humbuckers are a decent match with these. I'd definitely buy these again if i needed to upgrade another Mid range guitar.

Bought these pickups to upgrade pickups on 1997 squier strat.these pickups are clear as glass sound and make my old squier sound like a strat should .bought them from vanson guitar parts dan is the guy I contacted , hes a terrific guy nothings to much trouble for him .if in the future I need guitar parts ges the 1st guy I will contact the cost of his parts and the way he conducts himself in business is 2nd to none.

Better than the original pickups in my Mexican strat. Easy to install and the out of phase wiring trick works well.

I have installed the Wilkinson pickups in my customised Straocaster but have tested the sound-wise as the guitar is'nt finished . I have no doubt they will be just what is needed as I have used Wilkinson pickups before and was very pleased with the sound. An updated review will be added when the guitar is operational.

Excellent value. Clear tones that cut through, high and low end. Look good as well.
