Yeah sure, we got that!  Highest quality part! Best deal!

eBay Guitar Parts from China

This isn’t really a review… This is more like whipping a dead horse that I’m pretty sure we can all agree is dead and not coming back to pull the cart anytime soon.

These pickups sell for less than $20 and if you think they are worth even that you are foolish… Or a broke ass kid.

So really this is just a warning to all you broke ass kids out there combing fleabay for guitar parts.

Okay… Fair enough we are talking about Cheap Guitar Parts from Hong Kong but Chinese none the less… They’ve just had a little more time and experience in peddling their “fine wears” to the West than Mainland China.

The Bridge puckup is dead… Wide open circuit,  and both pickups covers are on crooked. The chrome plating looks like $h1t even without all the scratches.

The quality and workmanship is so poor these pickups are worthless even if they both worked and they weren’t all beat to $h!t.

 If you are interested… Here is my conversation with the seller, music_online_hongkong，您好！:

Hello,

So… I received the pickups today

Unfortunately the bridge pickup is dead as a door nail (wide open circuit) and aside from that  the build quality is so poor (covers not on straight or properly soldered) they are completely unacceptable even if  they both worked at any price.

What’s the deal with this anyway?…  My 4 year old can line up $h1t and solder better than that

Dear villageidiot,
