Volunteers needed - Product testing on Pickups...


I need 5 volunteers to test a product which is new to me. It is called Bobbin Toppers, a vinyl product made specifically for changing the look and color on pickup bobbins.

What you will recieve in the mail are three toppers. Two of them will fit the bobbins on an F-spaced Pickup, the other will fit over a single coil pickup. Along with these you will also recieve an alcohol swab packed for pre-cleaning your pickup bobbins before installing the toppers.

What I need in return simply is a report (email) on how hard they were to install and also a follow up email on how they are keeping up or any problems you might have incurred.

If all goes well and they are favorable then I will send you a complete set to do one of your guitars in your choice of colors. Please email me your address as well as post here stating you have done such so that others will know when I have my 5 volunteers. This is on a first come first served basis.

To give you an idea of what they do see below:
Before

After


Peace, Brian

What colours are the ones that you're sending out? If it doesn't look to ghastly I'll put them on the bsb for a while

I'll give it a shot. It's something I've always wanted to anyway, but never found a good way. But mine is a 7620, I don't know if you have that size. I'll try any color. James

I'd be happy to test this out to cover up my less than successful paintjob on my FP.
Do they come in pink? If not, I can try any colour.

You wanna stress test them? I beat the bag out of my guitars every weekend. Spilling beer, ashes and sweat all over my pickups when I gig on the weekends. I'd be happy to put them to the torcher test for you.
