    Have you tried the JB before? If not you are in for a treat, awesome pickup.

    Thats not a bad price at all considering that on ebay Duncans are usually fetching around $50 each plus shipping.

    That's like $160 per pickup, right? Whoa. You can get them pretty easily in the US for less than half that price. Don't some US dealers ship to the UK? I'm sure Lew would if you'd pay all shipping. It'd definitely cost less.

    you have to consider the taxes plus shipping and what the sellers take.. so you get a pretty hefty final price.. i paid 100 euro for each of mine. that is around 120-130 US$

    I've used the set before. I love the JB, not real keen on the 59. It's a bit bassy for me....but for that price, I couldn't turn them down!
