“…nothing less than perfect…”

Ken F.

I can’t find the words to express how I feel about them.  You took all the sounds I heard in my head and described to you and made them a reality.  You F-ing nailed it spot on!  They are exactly what I wanted!  You, my friend, are a wizard!  Absolute perfection!  Thank you so much for being a part of this guitar restoration/modification.  The guitar is everything I wanted it to be and more.  It actually exceeds my expected result, largely due to the pickups you built for me. They are nothing less than perfect for what I want in an HSS pickup set.  My own signature set of custom pickups.  Thanks again, dude.  Well done!  I will spread the word about JC Custom Pickups.  You rock!

“…the kind of pickups that make you feel you don’t need anything else…”

Leo "Jaeger" Yanez

I’ve been a guitar player since 14 years old, my main influences at that time (and still are) were Metallica, Pantera, Sepultura, Cannibal Corpse, Kind Diamond, Fear Factory and Testament. The way guys like Alex Skolnick, Dimebag Darrell, and Andy Larocque made their tones so great and present made me start this long trip discovering new horizons to get the ideal tone for my sound. After years of searching, trying different types of pickups, brands, passive and active, I discovered JC Custom Pickups.

I contacted Joe and we started to work on new 6 and 7 string sets for me. I told him what I was looking for with precision and he turned my thoughts into reality. I wanted med/high output pickups with a mid punch, a nice touch of highs and a compressed low end for those heavy rhythms with palm mutes, but with good clarity regardless of my setup. If i’m pushing the gain of my 5150 all the way up I wanted to be able to hear the note separation without loss of power.

After some testing, my signature 6 and 7 string sets, called “The Jaeger” were born. Honestly, these are the kind of pickups that make you feel you don’t need anything else after them if you play hard rock/metal/metalcore.

“…the results are outstanding”

Rocco Morando

I’m thrilled with my JC Custom Pickups.  From cool cleans to searing leads. I’m getting the true single coil tones I need, with almost no unwanted hum.

The process was intuitive, and the results are outstanding.

Thank you for helping me get the sounds out of my soul and into the ears of the audience.

“…note to note clarity is impeccable”

Dan Quinn

So I happened across a sweet new company (jc customs pickups) out of our own Midland MI!

I ordered a dog-eared P90 with alnico 5 magnets and a resistance measurement of between 14k and 15k. What I ended up with was a sick pickup that matched everything I needed! It’s incredibly clear and punchy when you need it to be. The note to note clarity is impeccable. Joe was very quick to get my order in and made and was very kind. I would recommend his pickups to anyone looking to upgrade their axe!!!

“…they really nailed it!”

Kevin Griner

Over the year’s I have tried many different company’s pickups. I know what I am looking for in a pickup and what works in my many guitars. When I came across JC Custom Pickups and told them what specs I was looking for they really came through with a nice bright yet all around nice tonal balanced pup! And then I had some more specialized specs and wow they really nailed it! The sound and tone and balance in the newest specially designed pickup blew me away! Well done! Thank you JC Custom Pickups! 11 stars!

“…excellent work”

Joe makes sure you are happy. He does excellent work. He goes the extra mile. I will buy multiple sets from him. That I promise.
