SOLD: Fender reissue CuNiFe Wide Range Humbuckers pair
suitablyswell
Frets: 71
As the title suggests, I have a pair of these going spare. Purchased last year on this very forum from @TheMarlin for a Tele Deluxe project that I ended up going in a totally different direction with some Mojo Gold Foils in that guitar instead.
No original box I'm afraid, but I've extensively AB'd these against original '70s WRHs, The Creamery non-CuNiFe WRHs and original Travis Bean big box humbuckers too - and they compare favourably with all. Similar in character to the Creamerys with a good balance across all the frequency range and perhaps a little less mid-focussed than the originals. Definitely less aggressive than Travis Beans, but more articulate. I absolutely love these pickups, but I am perfectly happy with my Creamerys and I don't need another Jazzblaster or Tele Deluxe at this point.
As they cost me £275, it seems to right to ask for the same amount too. I can also throw in a white Jazzblaster scratchplate and/or pots as per the original sale if they're required.
Buyer collects from Aberdour, Fife (can probably meet you in Edinburgh/Glasgow/Stirling too), or I can post at cost.
Feel free to ask away with any questions or requests for more images.
And here's a bonus of the Jazzblaster and Tele Deluxe projects that ultimately ended up not needing the Fender WRHs:

It's amazing to me that Fender managed to make an accurate reissue of these pickups and I expect that they'll hold their value should CuNiFe stocks dwindle again.
