gilmour Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Has anyone experience of Bassculture pickups? They're list of users seems very impressive, and I love the look of these, and (looks wise) I think they'll be perfect for a project I'm planning, but I'd like to know more. Trouble is the website looks [url="http://www.bassculture.de/"]like this[/url] and even with Google translate there's not a lot I can make from it. Quote

If you look under the 'impressum' link you'll find an e-mail address - you could try dropping the a line and see if they have a UK distributor perhaps? Quote

Mykesbass Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 The website lists Wood & Tronics as a user, may be worth asking Mark at Bass Direct about them - he's been getting some glowing praise for customer service on here. Quote
Doctor J Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 I had Christopf make me a set of humbuckers for my Ibanez SR3006 6 string. I told him the sound I wanted, he recommended an alnico humbucker for me and made them with Rosewood covers. They weren't cheap but they were a huge improvement in sound on the US Bartolinis which came as stock. He's a nice guy, easy to deal with and has good English, just send him a mail. Quote
gilmour Posted January 11, 2011 Author Posted January 11, 2011 I've heard back from him and we've been trading emails. It would be fair to say that his English is better than my German We've started talking about design and what not, they won't be cheap, but not so much more than a set of stock Nordstands (although using the word stock for Nordstrand pups seems a little unfair) Quote
