very easy sir, a simple search will bring you to a huge mega giga information page in which you can not only read a nice article but also enjoy allthe details and specs...

Just click on my profile, then go on my website in the pickups page....

here is the link

http://www.blackdroidguitars.com/pickups.html

BTW i'm not selling them in a commercial spirit because it would be impossible to produce so many pickups, I also already had many guitar brands who wanted a partnership with me to place my pickups in their guitars and I refused because i'm only offering those pickups to the demand I had from many musicians if they could buy some from me to fit in their instruments...

That's great, but apart from having a few insanely huge output ones it still seems to be a standard Kent Armstrong humbucker. What is different apart from having your ignitial on an admittedly nice case?

Such a shame that you did not read the PDF article to find out about those questions and to find out that they are built like no other pickups in the world...

Such a shame that you still dont understand my very first post and actually say that they look like the standard armstorng pickups because clearly you can see that there is no connection wires sticking out like on a production armstrong but solder tags instead combined with a unique system which you cant see on the production armstrong or anyother pickups in the world...

To bad that you still say ''admittedly nice case'' since there is no casing ''covers'' on the pickups like I explained, but that they are one solid unit as you can clearly see on the first post...

So I guess unless you are totally blind, you are just trying to play around with me and having fun which is cool, I hope you enjoy :)

But I came to this forum to help members for tech issues and to also relax and sharing knowledge and from what I read right now in your replies you simply do not take the time to actually read my posts or links and also invent that 170 euro = 500$, that was trully amazing one... :)

Sir Haemorrhoid, you are a riot, since you do not realise many of us see you spamming and trying very hard to be a "player" with mates like Kent Armstrong on every forum around that has 7 string and shred in its content, I guess your wish to inform us unworthy down here has an altruistic motive. Sorry, but how much time do you have to build guitars, sure as hell spend a lot of time spamming. All the best mate...and yes I was taking the piss :mrgreen:

I would recommend that you do some actual research on the subject of your apparent inquest before flailing them limbs (just go read the article). It would prevent you from resorting to name calling...or would it? :roll:
Will be selling an RGA42fm and JS100 soon..pm me if interested. Woaap!

Its only spam if no one wants to see it, i'm sure plenty like myself are keen to see more of his stuff, its not like he can force anyone to buy it, but it sure looks pretty and you do what you gotta do to get your name and brand out there, so far he's added to the community, not just taken, which is all good in my books :mrgreen:

I spent a couple of hours talking with Kent Armstrong when he was in NZ a few years back and he's a very genuine and nice, knowledgeable bloke. Has strong opinions on many things, which is very American, but understands our industry thoroughly. He genuinely believes in his products and backs them personally.

Were it not for the fact that I'm perfectly happy with stock pickups, I'd certainly try his ones out.
He hit a chord that rocked the spinet and disappeared into the infinite ...
