Peter Green Humbucker Set

By popular demand I have made some Peter Green humbucker sets for various clients of mine. Please contact me if you’re interested in having a set wound.

Here’s what Wayne B had to say about the Peter Green Humbuckers I wound for him:

“I am more than impressed” – Custom wound Peter Green humbuckers

“I gave Rich a brief of what I wanted and he more than delivered.

I had only had my Epiphone Les Paul for 4 days when I delivered it to Rich for him to make a set of Humbuckers based upon the ones Peter Green/Gary Moore famous old Gibson.

And I am more than impressed with Rich’s take on them. Not only are they as clear as a bell they are also tonally amazing but they sing for days. Rich also made them coil tappable for added versatility.

And I am very hard to please as anyone who knows me will tell you.

So if you are still searching for sonic Aural pleasure then stop reading this and contact Rich…..I personally guarantee you will not regret it.”

All of the above are just £75.00 per pickup (plus P&P) or £120 (plus P&P) for a matched set of two. Hot Humbuckers are just £80 each or £150.

The Peter Green Humbucker Set is priced at £185 for a matched set of two. Please visit the Tonefinder Shop to order or contact me to discuss. As each pickup is hand made to order, please allow up to 21 days for delivery (I normally try to fulfil orders within 14 days). All values stated above at +/- 10% and all pickups a wax potted by me unless requested otherwise.

Also, all humbuckers will be made with braided hook up wire but can be made with 4-core cable for coil tapping. Please specify if you want coil tapping options.

“exceptionally skilled man!” – Peter Green spec humbuckers

I have been playing Les Paul's for over 30 years and when I asked Rich to make me a set of humbuckers to Peter Green spec I thought I would get a reasonable set. They have transformed my Les Paul into the best I could ever imagine!

I have a large guitar collection but along with a Strat with a John Mayer set of pickups, made again by Rich, these are my main guitars. I play now in the Hop Back Blues Band that I have been running for the last 25 years.

Unbeleivable exceptionally skilled man!

A lucky chance to have been given his phone number.

Thanks for everything.

Regards,

Pete

Really good service at a really reasonable price! – Gibson LPJ

I recently bought a fairly low end Gibson new. It came with a few issues in that it just didn't feel right. I contacted Rich after finding his website. He came over, checked out my guitar and we had had a good chat about what I wanted or expected etc.

We decided on a full setup and fret level. Once I got my guitar back it was more than expected!! It plays much more cleanly, the frets are amazing, bending is so much smoother and the intonation is spot on!

Really good service at a really reasonable price!!!

Cheers Rich

‘The Reverend’ – Single coil pickup

“The set of ‘The Reverend’ pickups Rich installed in my Tokai strat has completely transformed it from a decent guitar into a tone monster! The higher output single coils have more bite and definition whilst still giving the distinctive strat tone that I was looking for. I mainly play blues so these suit me perfectly for that SRV sound but the clean tone of these pickups is fantastic – think ‘Coming Back to Life’ by Pink Floyd. They also give me a much wider range of tonal options and I’m even converted to liking the middle pickup on it’s own!

Having already had a complete refret and ‘Greasebucket’ rewire on my Tokai from Tonefinder, adding these pickups has left me with a guitar that absolutely sings!

Cheers Rich!”

“you clearly have a passion for what you do” – Craig F

Hi Rich,

Just wanted to thank you for the work you’ve done for me lately, you clearly have a passion for what you do, and a work ethic that compels you to give the best service possible coupled with very competitive pricing makes you my first choice for any work I need done.

The Boss DS-1 upgrade/mod you did took the pedal to new highs plus giving it incredible lows, making it the most versatile pedal in my arsenal. You’ve obviously have a great ear and knowledge of products.

You’ll be the first person I call when I need anything else done and I’ll happily recommend your services to all of my musician friends.

Thanks again,
Craig.

“I have to say….You’re an absolute genius” – Custom pickups

"I spent a number of months searching the net for a set of John Mayer signature pickups as over many years of session work, his sound was one I couldn't achieve.

I contacted Rich a few months ago with what I wanted and I left him to his work and I wasn't disappointed. The pickups themselves I can't find a single fault with. They have a very warm mid but keep the springy sound of my Fender Strat so they're perfect for what I wanted. They have an amazing clean sound but they really achieve the ultimate blues tone with a bit of gain. Rich knows what he's doing and does it well, I would recommend Tonefinder to anyone looking for the perfect tone."
