Russian pups ?

[DrBeGone]

I was browsing for Strat like pups for my Affy Tele neck and stumbled on this. Anybody heard about them ?

I've seen several favorable mentions on TDPRI. Try a search over there under Alexander Pribora.

+1 back when I was looking for pick ups, these popped up a few times with favorable comments.

Yeah, Pribora has a following. I've seen favorable comments more than once in the past.

I have a set of his "Classic Blues" in my MIM Strat and they are excellent in my opinion .

I just bought a used set of Priboras for cheap (50€) last week. Cannot say anything, yet, as I had no time putting them in. They seem to be made of high quality components.

Good find, I’ll have to put a few in my watch list.

Absolutely ! Direct from the Afghanistan or Caucasian mountains... A friend of mine has one, her name is Tchaîka. She likes to run, like my pal (he runs marathons , she's his coach !).

Anybody heard about them ?

About russian pickups, DrBeGood, I was ready to see that you have found some 60's pickups coming from the Aelita accordion and guitar factory, at Rostov-on-the-Don...

OK, I stop...

A+!

Alexander Pribora are on my must try list with several of the reviews I've read.

Pribora's pickups certainly have a distinctive "raw" sound. When you watch his demo video, he appears to be "chewing" something. It has been said, but never confirmed, that he chews the pickup wire before he winds the pickup. In Russia, this is called a "scatter chomp" wound pickup, which may well be the secret behind the raw Ruskie tone.

Here you go. A couple pages links to threads where these pickups are mentioned.
