Customer service is second to none
The most important thing to me is customer/after sales service and this is where Musiclily shine. I have had a lot of great products from them, and I have the plectrums to prove it. (Yes, folks you get a free plec with every purchase) I have never had a problem with anything until now. A slight issue with the pickups that was sorted out within two short days leaving me more than satisfied. As for the sound of the pickups. Great. A big improvement in the sound of my kit guitar. If I could, I would give 10 stars. Thak you Dora for your time in solving my issue.

Musically resolved issue with original pickups that were not as advertised
Update: I reordered these pickups and they arrived today. I'm glad to report the these are properly branded and when measured with a multimeter I am getting the correct published outputs for each pickup. Thankyou Musically and Amazon for resolving this issue."I was somewhat disappointed with this purchase. When I opened the parcel, I noticed that the pickups were unbranded. They should have Wilkinson M Series on the face of each pickup. So straight away I'm thinking "Am I being ripped off or just unlucky?". I checked the spec by testing them with a multimeter to find they were measuring about half the specified values. Amazon's customer service, true to form said I could return them and refunded me within a day or two. I'm going to wait until the supplier gets some new stock of this item hoping it was just a mistake or a dodgy batch🤞before I try again."

Great replacement pickups
Bought these as a replacement for some ceramic humbuckers in my Cort KX100. These Alnico 5 pickups produce a much warmer sound overall, and the overwound bridge pickup makes a mighty, creamy and excellent sound when overdriven or distorted. The ability to split the coils is a great feature too. Would definitely recommend these pickups. Can't believe they don't cost twice or three times the money! They arrived 10 days earlier than expected. Bargain!

Great humbuckers
These Wilkinson Alnico humbuckers are really excellent. I've put them in a Gretsch streamliner Junior Jet because I didn't like the chimey Gretsch broadtrons. Now it's got a Les Paul tone and is a really nice simple all round guitar.

Great upgrade for a cheap guitar
I bought these to upgrade my kit LP guitar and they're miles better than the bog standard kit that came with. If you're looking for an affordable set of pickups to upgrade a budget guitar, these are a great choice. The only gripe I have is that the leads on the neck pickup could have been a couple of cm longer but still easy enough to solder on.

Great sound, great value.
Sweet, rich sounds, clean or distorted, sound comparable to pickups four or five times the price. If you’re familiar with Wilkinson products you won’t need convincing, but if you are not, give them a go, you have nothing to lose!

Amazing pickups!
I had a little trouble with the wiring it first but then I messaged the seller and they sent me the absolute perfect diagram that corrected what I was doing wrong. These things are great! I installed them in place of my original 2023 Squire Strat Affinity HH pickups and although the original pickups were decent, these added a new dimension to the sound. From smooth clean sounding to hot classic rock, for the money and sound, they can't be beat.

Great value set of vintage sounding pickups
Bought for a home built guitar not wanting to spend more on pickups than the guitar kit.I was quite surprised with the built quality for the price, same as the expensive USA versions.The Tone is (to me) nice and mellow, vintage sounding) I really enjoy it.They were a big improvement to the ones I got with the kit.I will also try their hotrails and single pickups soon for some more expensive guitars.

Micro humbucker wilkinson overwound
Ce sont de bons micros. Les fils sont assez longs. Le son est clair et puissant. Il y a de beaux aigus pas trop de médium et des jolis basses. Pour le prix je suis très satisfaits. Pour comparaison, le SH4 de Seymour Duncan sonne plus "épais" mais ce n'est pas non plus le jour et la nuit.Ces micros sonne "vintage" et je n'ai pas de masse ou autre bruit.Je suis vraiment très satisfait.

Poca spesa ma tantissima resa
Ho una Epiphone Les Paul Studio del 2010, il cambio pick up ha trasformato la mia economica replica in una replica a cui manca ben poco nel suono di una vera Les Paul Studio Gibson.Non voglio dire che equivalgono a pick up blasonati, ma non credo valga la pena di spendere 200 euro di pick up per una chitarra che ne vale poco di più.Questi invece fanno la loro figura. Se amate il suono LP Classic tra Slash e Gary Moore avete trovate pane per il vostro amplificatore. Sembrano costruiti bene, il cablaggio a 4 fili permette di utilizzarli anche con pot con lo split. Pesano un pochino di più degli originali Epiphone montati sulla mia Studio. Ma il sound è più potente, definito e ricco di armonici. Il vostro setup va come minimo ri-equalizzato. Spingono tanto, ma si riescono a tirare fuori anche puliti decenti.....stiamo parlando di Humbacker, quindi i puliti non sono il loro pezzo forte. Ma tra rock e blues ci suono un po tutto.Stupendi. Non vi deluderanno.Davvero soddisfatto.Arrivati in un giorno, ben confezionati per il trasporto.
