    Here’s my Charvel with the Blackbirds installed. Not only does it sound epic, it’s also surprisingly difficult to photograph now that it’s so shiny…

    Thanks @OilCityPickups ! Pickups installed and sound phenomenal in my GS Export Deluxe semi.

    Very tempted to drill a hole for a killswitch now but unsure if its sacrilege on a lovely hand made guitar like this!

    Bloody hell that looks sexy! I have to say the Afterburner Blackbirds look good in there! Well done sir!

    Thanks both! Yeah I sold my flat top Huber Krautster & PJE Macon juniors & kept the GS, they've certainly upped their game since Auden took over QC & looks wise! Certinally top for the price, weighs in at just over 7lb too

    I was a very lucky boy and Ash very kindly offered to make these Blackbird pickups in pink to match my Ibanez Jem jr. They’ve transformed the guitar, it sounds so much better. They seem to pick up everything you do, which is also a slight negative with my messy playing!

    Designed for technical metal ... so clarity and string definition is baked in  :-) 

    Pinkbirds ... or maybe Flamingos ....

    The pic seems to have gone from my previous attempt. 

    Clarity and string definition is definitely what the Flamingos have got!
