Withdrawn: Oil City Winterizer Bridge Humbucker (Firebird-style in full size nickel humbucker cover)

CirrusCirrus Frets: 8281
edited January 2021 in Parts £
Good condition, full working order, and variously used in my Explorer and Strat bridge positions. It's wound to approx. 6.9k, but has a pit more punch than that'd suggest thanks to its less compressed and more punchy sound - it hangs nicely with PAF humbuckers in the 7-8k region in my experience. Comes with 4-conductor wire.

Some light pitting on the top, see photos that show that at its worst and best, angle/lighting dependent.

    There's nothing I'm particularly looking for to be honest, but if you have anything in mind then by all means try me - maybe it's something I didn't know I wanted  =)

    It looks like you've already been down this type of road, but i have an Oil City Blitz Spirit that I'll be looking to shift. Double white bobbins.

    A year ago I'd have been very tempted, but I think if I ever open up the control cavity to my Explorer again, it'll probably leave me citing domestic abuse! And I think it needs to be covered or black bobbins on that guitar anyways.

    I actually had SD alnico IIs in that guitar for about 8 years, loved them. I'm guessing the Blitz Spirit isn't a million miles away from them, maybe a closer to the Slash version with that output?

    I still have the cover for it. When I opened it up I was expecting a double black, which is what I wanted, so I had to buy another one. Aesthetics are a bitch, aren't they? ;-) Output is 8.4 fyi

    ahhh - I legit keep thinking about this. Iove the Firebird Neck in my tele but fear this will be slightly imbalanced with the Creamery p'up I'm eyeing up for the Gretsch I'm modding. GLWTS - bet it sounds ace

    @Shipwreck I’ve got a neck version if you want a pair. Haven’t seen it for a while, so not sure whether it’s humbucker or P90 width.
