Cream T Pickups & Guitars | Real-time pickup swapping, Crossfire and Aurora BFGT action at #42GSFour

Подробнее о видео

Today, I’m joined by the mighty Rich Bischoff and Hosk from Cream T to take a look and a listen to the up-and-coming brand’s made-in-England range of guitars and easily swappable pickups!

In the short time they’ve been around, Cream T have built up a pretty incredible product family of guitars and pickups – and perhaps the coolest thing is that with their guitars, you can swap the pickups in and out in seconds thanks to their Pickup Swapping tech!

Here, we go through and demo our two favorite Cream T Guitars – the offset Crossfire SRT-6 and the Aurora BFGT Billy Gibbons signature model – and a bunch of the different pickup options available, and you can really see how easy and quick it is to change things up in real-time.

We start with the (as yet unreleased!) Crossfire humbuckers, then we try the more classically-voiced Eliminator humbucker. After that, we try the Keith Richards-approved Bangers & Mash humbucker (which is effectively two Telecaster neck pickups together as a humbucker!) and the Duchess humbucker-sized P90s, before strapping on the Aurora BFGT and trying the exclusive Billy Gibbons Whiskerbucker – which reproduces the sound of BFG’s legendary Pearly Gates 1959 Gibson Les Paul.
