BF Sales? Let's see em!

30% off at Wilde pickups—which are already priced way below the other pickup builders that stand on his shoulders. If you wan't clean, neutral pickups, they're really nice. The Microcoils that I love in both my Strat and Tele are now $105 for all three Strat pickups. I liked these better than Lollars and a set of Kleins I tried. (both borrowed, and not exactly the versions I would've gone for—but just to give a sense of what my comparisons are.)

The sale is live through Jan.1.
I'm really glad to see them keeping BL's legacy alive. He's contributed more to the modern pickup design than most and not many people know who he is. I think Nuno Bettencourt had a hand in them re-issuing the hum buckers he uses in his signature models.
 


Matamp GT120 parts are on sale, the PCB and chassis are the best deals at $40 and $175/$200.

Be aware the spec’d transformers are not cheap, $742 for a set (Mercury Magnetics) pretax and shipping. There are other options. Heyboer can make a set but I don’t know if they are generic-ish British style transformers (Hiwatt or Marshall I guess) instead of Orange/Matamp over spec’d high voltage beasts like the Mercury Magnetics set.

I ordered a chassis and PCB. I likely I won’t use the PCB, but instead make turret boards. I have two other amps to finish first though haha (I need help).
