35-40 Days

Usually the timescale is still up at around 35-40 days as each pickup is custom made and I simply work through orders one-by-one - I am trying to get that back down.

    Creamery Custom Ric® Replacement Low '57 Pickup

    The Classic, Late '50s Bright, Jangly Ric® Single Coil Sound

    The classic 50's jangle & chime - That bright, jangly, unique sound that cuts straight through the mix.

    Bright, tight with great clarity and definition I make my Low '57 Ric® style replacements calibrated with a slightly lower neck pickup output for good volume balance through the positions though do offer them as a more vintage correct set with matching Bridge & Neck outputs.

    The thinner 44AWG wire helps give a little more mid-range than the low output would usually dictate and when combined with the tall, strong 1/4" diameter Alnico 5 rod magnets that protrude through the bottom of the pickup, you get that classic, rich, late '50s / early '60s sound.

    Toaster® pickups from the '50s tended to have the lower output whereas into the '60s, the output was increased a little - So with this in mind you can choose which version you'd like. The Low '57 version will sound that little brighter, a little lower in volume than the Mid '63 so if you're after the late '50s sound then go for the Low '57. If you're after that early/mid '60s sound then go for the medium output Mid '63. Both have that sweet, bright sound, the Medium output version being that little fatter, that little bit rounder.
