The BEST BASS pickups you've NEVER HEARD OF (Epic Custom Shop) F1,F2,E1,E2

[@GunsandGuitars]

I stand corrected. Thank you for informing me that Korea doesn’t have sweatshops and has good labor laws and fair wages. Please forgive my ignorance, I’ll fact check myself better before making such claims. To be fair, I did say that I do like Korean pickups and that they have their systems well dialed in!

Yes, only Nike has the 11 year olds working 16 hours a day.

[@brianmitchell2973]

The main reason why overseas products are cheaper than usa made ones is material and not labor. While labor may be half materials are like 10% cost.

[@rodshop5897]

@@brianmitchell2973 Really? Not to get into a dispute, but I've seen the costs on our outsourced products, and it's the inverse of the numbers you've reported above. The materials are a larger percentage of the total, but the biggest savings is in super low labor rates. But we're not outsourcing to Korea, so maybe for that country your numbers are accurate. I just try to buy made in USA products when I can.

[@maxonmendel5757]

You good fam.

[@JG-ux7of]

@@brianmitchell2973 Labor is one of the main reasons but not the only reason. Not every Asian country uses Chinese pot metal. Japanese and Korean companies vary, some use it and others don't. Some American companies are using Chinese pot metal for parts now too. I would still say that you are likely better off buying American made over Korean or Japanese because American made is likely superior just as Korean or Japanese is likely better than Chinese or Indonesian made.

[@JG-ux7of]

China has sweat shops, South Korea workers have rights and they are paid much better than in China. South Koreans are known for having strict work ethics but that is very different from forced labor. When workers at the Cort factory felt they were being mistreated they protested and went on strike; those aren't things sweatshop workers do.

[@GunsandGuitars]

Someone else mentioned this as well. I stand corrected. I should fact check myself before I say stuff like this. Thanks for the correction I really do appreciate it.

[@AuntAlnico4]

J G * I would have to agree with that based on the PRS SE custom that I have, it was made in Korea south.

[@SuperShecky]

What *exactly* is a sweatshop, anyhow? A shop where people sweat? A shop located in a country you disapprove of for whatever reason? Whatever employment practice you disapprove of? Sweatshops exist in USA, even though "muricans have rights! You'll even find prison labor in the good 'ole US of A. The privilege of going on strike for Americans is basically the privilege to be unemployed for the millions who work in Right to Work States, or for small boutique manufacturers, such as the many small pickup makers who sell direct. So if you're going to start grinding your axe about China's work conditions, you're going to need some very specific and provable information about the workers you presume to be caring about.

I love Warman and Wilkinson MM's myself but I find them a bit warm as my idea of a good bass tone is a tank driving over rubble in a warzone 🤣

[@josephlafreniere3833]

I bought the F2’s for a satin honey burst p bass. I absolutely love the sound now! Definitely more punch with a great noticeable open sound! I’ve used in the studio and the sound man was very impressed with how little he had to do to get the sound he wanted. Live performances it cuts through easily against two guitars and a heavy handed drummer! Thanks for the heads up and the discount!! Joe

[@rogerwhite9484]

I gotta agree they sound great, I preffer the F1's & E1's as I've got a P&J & it could use some new pickups & pots. Thanks, you've sold me on them & I'm glad to find a US made set that isn't active & requires routing the body. Keep up the good work.

Cheers Dan, i got in touch with Reech who made me a beutiful E1 Jazz bridge single coil..

[@fritzsoland4780]

Great vid about the pickups, but I must show disagreement with your two Korean sweat shop comments. I live in South Korea. The factories here are not forced labor in squalor conditions for little or no pay. The pickups you demonstrated are made by two people and a mulitplier machine. It's interesting to watch. Imagine the Heritage Guitar factory in Kalamazoo, that's simar to where these pickups are made.

[@GunsandGuitars]

Thanks for the correction. A few people have commented that I’m wrong about the sweatshops comment. I apologize for the misinformation. Please forgive me. To be fair, I did say that I do like Korean pickups.

[@ts4gv]

You have the best pickup test i think. You should also make a video about pickups generally. Whats high end and what musicians actually love. Would be nice to know:-)

[@GunsandGuitars]

That’s not a bad idea

[@KindredCliff]

I took your advice and ordered a pretty nice Tone Monster preamp and just ordered the PJ1 set for my 92 Ibanez Soundgear, we’ll see how she sounds when I reassemble her.

[@hvze9848]

Updates? I just pulled the trigger on the same set and I’m crossing my fingers I didn’t just waste my money

[@KindredCliff]

@@hvze9848 never received more compliments on sound in my life! I put these in and have never seen so much output from an Ibanez on passive mode, the preamp is amazing as well but the growl it has now is insane. Clarity, punch depth it’s all there, these are a blessing. I’m no way affiliated just very impressed with my purchase.

[@hvze9848]

@@KindredCliff well now, that certainly puts me at ease. Thank you!

[@dreibel]

two notes: 1, that is one huge neck pocket dude! Love the shape of the body, like a Fender Aerodyne. 2, one factor in the tone of the pickups come down to the type of bridge used , I installed a Duncan Quarter Pounder in my Squier CV Precision and did find it to be way darker than the original one, but after replacing the Gotoh hi-mass bridge copy with a 60s repro Fender bridge from AllParts, that pickup brightened up and sounded snappier. I found out later from a bassist friend that hi-mass bridges are designed to increase mids as well as sustain, and the mids in a hotter pickup just piles onto what a HM bridge adds.

[@GunsandGuitars]

That’s interesting. All the times I’ve used quarter point pickups I’ve always had a high mass bridge. I’ve only heard that they increase sustain, never heard that they color the tone. I’ll have to test this theory. Btw that body is a 5 string jazz bass body, with a 4 string neck, that’s the reason for the huge neck pocket lol.

[@riccardosantia5996]

Great job. Let me know if you have a video on a tele bass pickup. Looking at Seymours 51 P bass stack and Franlin Split 51 P bass pick up. Im putting together a kit that you recommended. I would prefer a noiseless Pup. I just don't want to pay a ton of $. Any recommendations? Thanks

[@kevmac1230]

I took your advice on these when this video came out so I installed two Epic Customs p bass pups ( an F1 and an f2)on a bass build.All I can say is Wow! I have used a ton of pickups and these are for real.Not to mention the ridiculous price.They blow my Geezer pup away. Thanks for the tip and discount!

[@bassrebel]

I’ve been in touch with Ruiqi ever since I saw this video and he custom wound an E1-ish set for me (5 string) and they should be arriving on Sunday. Can’t wait to try them with the Darkglass Tone Capsule preamp... 😈

[@TriodesPs111]

how did that work out for you? can you give more details about the tone? i ask cuz im thinking about contacting them to see about getting a 5 string J bass set. how much was it to get 5 string versions?

[@diecuttingsolutionsinc6745]

Sounds like using in a PJ set to try the F1 - P and E-2 -J to get the best of both worlds .

[@barrygoodson4952]

That is exactly what I thought !

[@gregaroller]

Great demo! E1 seem better for a lesser player like myself as it was more forgiving with good bottom even with a pick.

[@joeojeda9393]

So.... I know this is an older video but, I really enjoyed it. I am actually working on a rig to do just this same thing. I am a bass player and want to start my own channel to review and test bass strings, bridges, top nuts, pickups, etc. I want to go a little more in-depth though. My rig will have test equipment hooked up for many facets of testing. Tensiometets for string tension and hownit affects neck and intonation, top nuts of different material and how they affect sound, btidges and how they affect playability, sustain, etc., pickups for SO many reasons, and so on. I really enjoy your work and am inspired by what you do. I too am a Christian, am a veteran that enjoys 🔫s...and a bass player that over analyzes everything there is about basses🤣🤣 I always look forward to your videos and builds. Thanks for all the insight and may reach out when I get my thing going. Be well and always be blessed🤘🏽😎🤘🏽

[@ErixSamson]

About the proto bass: what are your ideas behind putting the P pickup on the bridge side and what about the angle for the J pickup? Don't you think the J pickup would sound a bit better being less close to the neck (it would be also easier to slap / pop)?

[@kirtfulcher6288]

@11:29 FYI I just emailed with Ruiqi at Epic and he mentioned the P/J set is $90 not $80... Not a deal breaker for me personally, but I don't want peeps thinking they are getting the shaft if there was a miscommunication. He responded to my inquiry in under 6 hours... :)

[@sski]

Those DO sound pretty sweet! I am a big GFS fan. I have never had a problem with anything from them, customer service included. I've refurbed and built many guitars using their products with outstanding results. I refurbed my Hamer Standard with all gold hardware and their Fat & Crunchy Pat pickups and the guitar is now a visual and audio beast! I have a Korina V in the works presently that will be just as outstanding. But these bass pickups have peaked my interest. I have plans for a new bass that might be able to use them. Thanks for the look!

[@GunsandGuitars]

I’m very glad you have had good experience with gfs. I wish I liked them more, they have a lot of fun products I’d like to try.

[@willtato8778]

You do comparisons the best imo. Back to back with different techniques, positions and techniques. May take a long time to edit, but I'm sure we all appreciate it :)

[@willtato8778]

I also like your thumb picking technique (or whatever it's called). Just curious, is this more of a "reverse slap" or more of a thumb pluck?

[@GunsandGuitars]

I call it a “pop” it’s basically what I’m doing with my other fingers, just with my thumb. It’s easier to catch the next string on an up stroke after I’ve slapped the string on top of it. Handy tool when used properly!

[@harper.the.confused]

Seeing as I overlooked the preamp hole layout and need to add a hole to fit the ToneMonster preamp a video on how to properly seal the existing holes and layout new ones would rock. The new preamp is a five pot system and the bass is only drilled for four, two of those four are damaged “almost pushed through” so that needs repaired. It’s a fun learning process but when you want to go out and gig with it the learning time sucks...

[@riffsnoleads]

I found the F2 to be a little to brittle for my liking. Definitely could be adjusted with an amp EQ but I really was digging the classic vibe of the F1 set. Nice and fat with a heavy amount of low mids. The E series I did not have much preference to either more over the other, but then again, I am a P bass kind of dude. As another suggestion for pickups that are very inexpensive but great sounding, check out Guitar Madness pickups. They are on eBay and Reverb I know for sure. I have a set of humbuckers in my Jackson Dinky and they are killer. Only $30 for the pair. I may have mentioned these before on a different video of yours.

Okat Dan, The P-bass pickups: I prefer the punch and overall depth of the F1's for pick & slap, but prefer the cleanness of the F2's for finger plucking where the F1's sounded a bit noisy when plucked. On the J-bass pickups I think the E-2's sound just as good as the E1's. In other words I found only a very slight bump in the E-1's punch, really not worth mentioning, the E2's were just fine.

@@GunsandGuitars Ok. I reckon just positioned together so they're touching. You've got some wiggle room to slide them around.
