• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

<article class="message-body js-selectToQuote" id="js-XFUniqueId39" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 10px 0px 0px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.6;">I read about these before they were available. Being a fan of Mr Gibbons I was more than intrigued. They’re definitely pricey but there are more expensive pickup sets out there..

Mine is set #37. They’re numbered so one would think that there’s a limit on how many sets will be made.. but I haven’t read online that it’s the case..

the 7-38 strings that came with it will be kept as a souvenir lol I can’t imagine having .007 gauge strings. 9s are about as light as I can go.

I even added some historic rings while I was at it on my 2019 60s Standard...

are they worth the premium price? That answer will be different to everyone. They sound great and how they came to be is pretty cool as well..

Zach of Mythos pedals installed a set in his R9 and made a demo.

An excerpt from the Cream T site

Utilising our patented analog spectrum recorder, developed exclusively here at Cream T Pickups, it is now possible to recreate 100% mirror-imaging of legendary pickups across the board.”


What that actually means I have no idea lol. There’s a podcast on how these and the company came to be.. if ya listen to that stuff, look up Guitar Nerds podcasts.. the guy from Cream T is on there and discusses it. It’s from about a week or two ago.
