All user reviews for the TV Jones Classic

I use a little over a month now. I have installed a Epiphone Dot in the early 1990s, instead of poor quality fake PAF who were there original. I first tried microphones Alumitone Lace Music on this guitar, with a result a little "cold" too modern for my taste.

I would do the same choice today. These pickups are clear, with a very beautiful setting treble, mid and bass, and a slight natural compression. Their sound is a remarkable elegance, equally suited to a rhythmic play as solos.

A very good point: if you've played on good Gretsch, you will find a particular element Filtertron period, which is a humbucker sound quite sharp and delicate one may think that it is sometimes single coil pickups P90 but with such a good "punch".

As for the price, it is better to purchase ...

I bought these mics on the advice of many forums to transform my Gresth Electromatic in "real" Gretsch (in sound).

Obviously the only comparison I can do it with the original pickups Electromatic.

Me after a very mediocre handyman, I managed to dismantle the assembly in one evening without worry thanks to the video on the TV Jones site.

Good then the sound. Well, it's much better: the sound is much better defined (where the original humbuckers are a little "mellow", fishing and lack of clarity.)

And good once you played with, difficult to return to less, so obviously I would do this choice.

As for the price, I find it a little abused, so I went through a site other than TV Jones for having about 20% cheaper (but it is true). Only drawback I had to wait longer.

I changed the pickups on my guitar Cort Jim Triggs 2 (standard gibson humbucker) for TV Jones Classic.
The installation is simple, a trick to avoid losing the buttons at the bottom of the box, use a rubber hose 6mm diameter provided for aquariums.
The sound is fantastic! Gretsch Pure U.S., what are the microphones used by Brian Seltzer or ZZTop (mounted in place of the originals).
Powerful, clear with good crunch as the amp, respond fantastically well to play the right hand, perfect for rockabilly, rock, Texas, velvety jazz, blues. The balance between the two pickups is perfect.
I've had two months. After comparing with the Gretsch Asian, there is no photo, is the day and night. They are comparable with U.S. high-end Gretsch.
I do not regret at all the price and choice.
A repeat if necessary.

Just a little regret having waited so long to buy them!
