I've generally heard good things about the GFS pickups (from guitarfetish.com)
I replaced the neck pickup on my 72 Tele a few years ago as the old one's volume had gone downhill, suspect the windings were rusting away. So I put an alnico pickup in and it made the bridge pickup sound wimpy. Now the bridge pickup's volume has diminished too, and the jack and tone control have given some crackling noises on occasion, so I started looking around and saw that I can get a whole set of GFS pickups and a wiring harness for $79:
Neck: KP - Alnico Stagger Tele Neck Pickup Classic Chrome Cover - Kwikplug® Ready
60's style bridge: KP - Repro 1960's HOT Alnico Tele Bridge Pickup - Kwikplug® Ready
Harness: Kwikplug Tele Style Wiring Harness- PRE-SOLDERED Drop-In
And the good thing is I don't have to try my limited soldering skills, as the pickups use their quick-plug method.
What do you think?
