nals but it’s been some years, and I know it’s apples and oranges because of the smaller paf size, but wow. All the attack and clarity you want out of a Tele, but with a deeper (not at all muddy) bottom end and no trace of ice pick on the highs. Nice balanced mids without getting honky like a PAF or P-90, it really is the best of all worlds in my opinion. And of course Jesse was phenomenal as always, faster turn around than quoted and answered all my annoying questions with grace. This is my 2nd set of Revel’s, it won’t be my last.

kup, but I broke the bridge pickup. Jesse did an amazing job salvaging my pickup (which I spent a lot of money on and didn't want to have to throw out), and all for a very reasonable price. Now my Matsumoku Vantage sings and is my favorite guitar! I will be saving up to buy some of his Filter-tron humbuckers for when I rewire my Sheraton II. Just another shining example of how you can find a person for anything in Minneapolis if you know where to look 🙂

thm circuit split coils for each pickup. The Broadbands do exactly what Jesse built them for - the single coils actually sound good, very much like strat pickups, and they don't lose nearly as much volume as other split coil humbuckers I've tried. When unsplit, the neck pickup in particular sounds amazing, kinda similar to the vintage Maxon Wide Range in my old Greco Thinline Tele. Every combo sounds good; I love some of the sounds I get with both pickups engaged, one split, one humbucker. Combine that with the strangle switch and the Broadbands made my Jaguar an incredibly versatile beast, since there are essentially 20 combinations possible, each unique and none of them unusable. The overall clarity and balance across the strings is really impressive. It didn't take a lot of adjustments before everything sounded great. Definitely looking at getting some more Revel pickups in the future.

th her. Long story short b string magnet on middle pickup had rust that killed her. It killed me. I found Jesse and saw he could do what I needed. If my pickup came back the same I would have considered him a magician. It came back the best pickup I have ever played on. The most dynamic, organic and musical pup I ever owned. When the other two die... Yep I just tempted fate, nobody but Jesse will work on my stuff. He is an artisan.

ys sounded thin and couldn’t keep up when piling on the gain. After I tried Jesse’s mojo 43’s at a guitar show, I was floored. They were EXACTLY what I was looking for. I just got 'em in the old workhorse, and I already can’t put it down. They are articulate, punchy with just enough tele twang, and when you load up the gain, they have girth and growl while maintaining an amazing cut through a mix.
Plus, Jesse was a joy to work with and helped me with some wiring suggestions. What a company, and what a product!

I was looking for a custom PUP and with minimal back-and-forth Jesse aimed me to a modified OG. I installed it in my Les Paul and this pickup really brings out the personality in the instrument. Dynamic, smooth and allows you to hammer out a rhythm riff anywhere on the fretboard.
I highly recommend Revel. Good product, good price and good turn around time.

The Bully Breed's work well in any build, from a reclaimed Douglas fir barnwood T-style to an ash & maple semi-hollow, we love these beasts!
We're really impressed with the versatility of these pickups. These do it all, from a crystal-clear, clean, angelic, vintage voice to an absolute blistering raw, biting, growling, chunky, meaty pile of face-bashing tone!
Also, on top of all that, Jesse is a really great guy. He's so easy to work with, answers any question you might have with easy-to-understand answers, and his response time is super fast.
You've GOT to get a pair of these Bully Breed P90s in your guitar. They'll blow you away!!!!!
