Shed is a UK pickup maker - has anyone tried their pickups?

I assume you mean humbuckers? I was thinking of the P90s.

Interesting to read about Shed pickups around here. I have a set of PAF daddys on order from him to install on a Tokai I have. I?ll review them later..

8) I assume you're in the UK?

Nope. Not in the UK.. why?

Oh, I guess I assumed that they were only really known in the UK. What made you choose Shed?

I read lots of posts from him at several Internet forums where he?s quite an active member. It seems that he really knows a lot about vintage Humbuckers and how they?re made.

Besides, with the current Euro-Pound exchange rate, his prices are quite good and cheaper than the usual handmade pickup makers from the US.

OK, that's good to know. Spencer is a helpful guy, he's wax potted a few pickups for me, including the bridge pickup from my TE70 - changed it from a useless howling thing to an excellent pickup.

I would actually quite like to support a small UK business, in these difficult times. It certainly worked with Cornell.

Look forward to your review.

yeah, i meant the humbuckers , though to be honest if you try any of his pickups it'd give a rough idea of the general quality etc.

looking forward to the review too, alpedra.

Never tried them myself, Mike but I have read glowing praise in Guitar & Bass (UK) Magazine. The writer had commissioned Spencer to make a few sets for a series of DIY relic articles. I believe that Welsh Luthier & repairer Dave Dearnaley (spelling?) uses Shed Pickups too.
