Gibson Accessories "Dirty Fingers" Hot Ceramic Humbucker Pickup Reviews

5 5.0/5.0 based on 3 customer reviews

Sweetwater Advice

Ron Daniel
I installed one of these Dirty Fingers Humbuckers into the bridge position of my Epiphone Les Paul, and suddenly it's hard to distinguish the guitar from a Gibson! Tons of volume with no noise, clear and heavy, and sustain for days. I highly recommend making this mod!

To the other guitarist review

For one i just want to state that tom delonge is a very creative guitarist. He does not suck. You need to realize that he played as lead and rythem while being a front man of singing. Do you know how hard that is. Two these pickups are amazing. The give a highly versitle tone that has a distinguished sound. I wanted a pick up to play punk but there were times i needed it to have its sound without having to much "mud". I highly agree with these pickups.

For a Bigger-Than-File Tone

These are great pick-ups. I am glad that Tom DeLonge brought them back to life (he may not be a great guitar player, but I like his tone). I bought these as an addition to a project guitar I am working on (Epiphone Les Paul Junior). I wanted to see if I could turn a low-end guitar into something I wouldn't mind playing. I have.

Put these pick-ups as close as you dare to your strings (without unwanted noise) and they are the hottest tone you can find (unless you use active pickups). They made my $119 guitar sound like its worth much more. The Dirty Fingers allow me to get the specific tone I am looking for: hot, full, but transparent. If you set your amp up right, you can get a big sound and still hear every note in the chord. Fantastic product!
