No love for Boo Buckers?

[Anficht]

Just saw this in the news section (yes, so I'm a bit slow!) and thought it looked pretty cool. Did a search and nothing came up.

So question: did anyone get one (or two) of those? How'd you like it? Maybe post a pic and what model did you go for?

Thinking, if this would optically fit in an 80s style Strat (Maple board, neon-pink body), istead of the black buckers I have in right now.

?????????????????????????

Are these the orange halloween pickups?

[STRATDELUXER97]

WTH is a Boobucker!?

[JeffB]

Are these the orange halloween pickups?

Yup

[King IzzO)))]

Ah-ha. Did anyone even buy any? I think it's cool, but how many people can use orange pickups legitimately?

[Agileguy_101]

Might look cool in an orange Charvel, or TLD's RG.

[Ed Hunter]

PICS!!!

Isn't the Boo Bucker just a customer spec'd pickup wound in the custom shop but with orange bobbins?

I thought it was any production model in that bobbin color?

[Tune-O-Matic]

Ed I dont really know. I just figured if MJ was winding in the custom shop you could spec out anything you wanted.

[SrDeMaFp]

I wonder what they're supposed to sound like(?)

[desertdude]

they are just the bobbin color, I looked into them for my Orange PRS

[PRSfan nym 1985]

yeah my understanding was that it was basically any pickup you wanted only with orange bobbins. I don't think they are supposed to sound like anything until you pick which type of pickup you want.

It could be a Jazz or it could be a Distortion, it just depends. Personally I don't really like orange or have a place to put them that wouldn't look completely strange so I'll stick with double cream, zebra, or nickel covered humbuckers

[Anficht]

Yes, it's any custom shop model you want, just in orange (which I think is pretty cool).
If anyone has pics, I'd love to see em. The pic from Duncan website is great - but I'd love to see an unprocessed pic

Frightening!

[Aceman]

They would go nice in my new Chops Bulider (see Guitar room)

[TheLivingDead]

I like em.

I would've gotten a new guitar just to put em in.

Maybe a Cleveland Browns theme or a black Halloween themed guitar.

Hell yeah.

You've gotta read the not so fine print.

Looks like it's an orange '78, or possibly any other custom.
