Good news for those thinking of upgrading their pickups: Kiesel Custom Shop has released brand new ones. The Kiesel Beryllium pickups were designed by Mark Kiesel, president of Kiesel Guitars, to produce a more vintage-sounding guitar tone.

The Beryllium pickups use Alnico II magnets and vintage-style winding to create a tone that’s clean, low in output and mid-accentuated—in other words a ‘classic,’ time-honored guitar tone. These puppies—they’re available as bridge/neck humbuckers and single-coils—are already standard fixtures on the Kiesel guitars that belong to the SH semi-hollow, CT and CS series, as well as on the AE185 and AE185-12 acoustic-electric models.

Kiesel Custom Shop has also created a bunch of new pole colors for both its Beryllium and Lithium ranges. For something more classic, go for the Silver; for a subtler touch, the Black poles are right up your alley. And if you want to match the gold hardware on your axe, the Gold poles should do the trick.
