Oil City Christmas sale

in Made in the UK tFB Trader
Hello one and all! As usual we at Oil City Pickups will be getting red faced and sweaty as we prepare to unload our sacks of seasonal joy ... socially distanced of course! :-)



This years Christmas/New Year sale will be easy to remember it will give you a handy 15% discount ... it will start on the 15th of December and we will start posting out pickups built for you on Feb 14th Valentines day. The extra time this year is due to the possible Covid issues. 

The magic coupon code you can use to get this discount on our site is QuarantineSanta    

We all hope you have a better 2021 ...

    I usually recommend the softer tone curves of alnico three or four for jazz ... so either my Forces Sweetrheart A4 set, or from my Masterwound range: my alnico 4 Beano or alnico 3 Riot Act (the Riot Act is my personal favourite

    PS ... the sale is still on till January 14th ...  :-)

    TMI.  :3

    Speaking of which, what is the standard polepiece spread of the Overkill pickup, please?

    Would 53mm E to G count as a bespoke/custom order?
    Be seeing you.

    Hi mate , the Overkill is 63mm to suit Fender string spacing. We'd have to totally re CAD design the Overkill to do 53mm, so it would indeed be a custom job.
