My version the the famed Franz Dogear pickup. I have been making a vintage correct version of the Franz pickup for a long time just did not supply the cover. Not being pleased with any of the after market covers because they either looked too uniform and symmetrical, 3D printed, or cast. None of them had the look and feel of the original thermal vac formed covers. So I set out to produce a proper cover that looks and feels like the vintage ones. While I was at it I reproduced the proper base plate. As for the pickup itself it is built to vintage specs in look, feel and tone. It is a VAST improvement over the reissue version.

The cover comes in black and parchment. It might require some contouring on the bottom to match your guitar and position.

"I asked curtis to come up with a lipstick for the middle and a stealth neck humbucker for my missingmen guitarman tom watson's jazzmaster. both are beautiful buttloads of sonic giving more vocabulary to express himself - we both bow big time in curtis' direction."

"Last night, onstage with my dad (Randy Bachman, from BTO) in Saint Paul, Minnesota, I had my first opportunity to plug in Excalibur with Curtis's pickup inside. I do not say this lightly, but I was amazed and thrilled. So was the whole band... What I like most of all is that there is a certain 'airiness', a certain 'liveliness', there which is just awesome. This pickup has legitimately hit the sweet spot between 'hot rod excitement' and musicality. It's staying in the SG forever. Thanks, Curtis!"

Tal Bachman

"Using this pickup in my Fender it feels like every element of the tone is simply there -- clear, well-defined low end, robust mids and highs that have a wonderfully smooth presence -- all unhindered, immediate and full. Thanks Curtis for building my dream Precision pickup!"
