Monty’s Replacement P Pickup

[Swills]

Hi all,

 

Very specific question here but does anyone have experience with Monty’s ‘62 P Bass Pickup? I’m looking for a vintage tone replacement and have been tempted in this direction.

They’re quite expensive but maybe they’re worth it ?

Did you pull the trigger on these pickups? I literally found them this weekend and came on here to do a search.

I've had some work done by them in the past and got a '72 p-bass pickup from them. The attention to detail and character was great - in the end it wasn't quite what I wanted, but in a way that feels like a tribute to the work they put in - you could very much hear the difference. I'd be confident that they were making the right moves to get a great 62 copy - they do loads of high end guitar repairs, a lot of rewinds and have seen the inside of everything.

Thanks for your experience. I may just give them a call actually.

I did and it’s a fantastic pickup. Amazing service from Monty’s too. They go the extra mile!
