I've done the unthinkable...

[Broseph]

and installed zebra pickups on a core 594 Semi-hollow. Extremely controversial for many here.

I didn't want 2 guitars with the same set of pickups as my regular McCarty has the 58/15 LT set.
So installed these that I had left over from a previous project. Absolutely love them. BKP Peacemakers.
And I like the classic look. For some reason I wasn't feeling the covered nickel look on this tobacco burst.
I'm all for making my own guitar. Interesting enough somebody installed a treble bleed on the bridge volume pot. I removed it based on my previous experience with this pickup.

Looks awesome, classy!

I dig it! Not usually a fan of Zebras, but they look great on that guitar.

It's hard to focus on the pickups with that amazing top. What a great looking guitar. It's always cool to see someone make the guitar their own. Great job.

This would make me reconsider my “no singlecuts” rule

Your Standard22 makes me consider black rings, switch tip, tuner buttons, and control knobs!

The zebra swamp ash special looks great!!!

Like Bodia, I am not normally a fan of zebras, but they do look fantastic on that guitar! Good choice!! And BKP, how could you go wrong ;~)) I would mention that I am not comfortable with the creme color on the zebras with the whitey white pup rings, but that is just me! I would change the pup rings to a more creme colored one or black! Enjoy, that is a beautiful axe!!!

Looks great to this zebra fan!

Nope. 100% Maryland Made awesomeness.

They look like humbucker pickups and nice ones, the real question is how do they sound? are they better than the ones you pulled out, at least to you?

Having no idea if it's stock, I really like the black mounting screws on the ivory pickup rings and the way that they both work with the zebs. Stunning.
