JJB Electronics piezo pickups - any experience?

Post by Shane Woonton » Wed Nov 26, 2014 9:30 am

Found this via some discussion on AGF.

US-made. Claim to use the same components as "the other" supplier. KK pure western get such a great rap for what looks like the same setup, and these are about half the price. Has anyone tried these?

I should add - US$49 RRP plus only $4 postage to New Zealand.

No experience, but I wonder which model is their rip of the pure mini?

When I finally get around to finishing my current build, I could try it out as opposed to spending full bucks on the real deal just to throw in a guitar that is just a mess around build.

Given the choice I'd stay with K and K......their back up service is second to none.

I installed them before I closed the box. Pretty much identical to K&K but it will be a while before the guitar is finished.
