Description

A subtle twist on our best selling ID:Chris Buck signature Strat set, the ID:CB ’57s feature hand bevelled Alnico III magnets and are specially voiced to give that classic, sought after ‘Californian’ maple fingerboard Strat tone. As with our original ID:Chris Buck set, the ID:CB ’57s feature an unpotted inner core of winds delivering a huge increase in playing dynamics, presence and character of tone over other makers’ pickups. This set also features our own design ‘Tele-fit’ baseplate in the bridge position to offer extra bass and beef from the bridge pickup position. Perfect for smokey, bar-room blues and a myriad of other styles both vintage and modern, check out Chris’ wonderful playing of this set in our workshop G&L Legacy by clicking on the ‘Watch’ Tab above.

Delivery By default all of our pickups are shipped with Royal Mail who we find to be excellent both within the UK and Internationally. Their rates enable us to offer prices that are very reasonable for our customers and the timeframe is great for the vast majority of countries. We find that, once despatched, Royal Mail tend to take 1 working day within the UK, 2/3 working days within the EU, 4/5 working days to North America and Worldwide. These are guidelines and of course some countries differ and the level of ‘officiousness’ in customs departments differs massively worldwide. If ordering from a country which is notorious for taking a while to process imported goods (we can think of a few!) please build this into your expectation on the timeframe after despatch. How long will it take to make? As a small pickup maker handmaking within an extremely busy workshop we expect to complete all pickups sets within 16-20 working days (Relic’ed orders 5 days longer). We sometimes work quicker than those timeframes and we’ll always endeavour to finish your pickups as quick as we are able to of course. We can sometimes process a rush order if you have an upcoming, important concert or perhaps if you are buying for a relative’s birthday etc - feel free to message and we’ll always see what we can do.
