Campilongo Pick Ups

I find it amazing that anyone would part these out out, due to collector original integrity... but here they are for those interested...

  • Wow!!! That's the 1st set I've EVER seen for sale.
  • Sold for $650!?!?!?
  • Still kick myself for being about a minute late when a bridge pickup went up on ebay. Buy It Now price was $100!
  • I don't think even Jim himself would pay $650 for a pickup- even if it was a "Jimmy Bryant signature tele" pickup! LOL
  • Right now there is a 'floor model' Campilongo model on eBay for about $3600. I don't have that sort of $$ for a guitar right now - but I like to look at Telecasters----this post was a reminder to myself that when buying a 'not run of the mill' guitar - check for all original parts - as if these p/up's are fetching $650---more guys will yank them out. I realize only 50 of these guitars were made....but still.
  • That floor model has a pretty big blem. Great for someone who wants to play the heck out of it!
