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.

ntastic. Along with other nice qualities that come through, with the nuances of my playing; they are very inspiring! Somehow I got just what I wanted. They look great also. Thanks! Jesse D.

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.

ordered the pickups, he messaged me with questions to confirm the tone I was seeking matched what I ordered. The craftsmanship is excellent. Quality of parts is excellent. The tone is awesome. They sound full, clear, and break up well. I couldn't ask for better pickups at any price level. Thank you Jesse. I highly recommend Revel Pickups.

thanks to Jesse at Revel Pickups who completely rebuilt the pups for my customer and I, as that was a little out of my expertise. Working together makes the dream work, baby. Check out Jesse for all your pickup needs; can’t recommend him enough! Great work, turn-around time, and price! Thanks again, it sings!!

rs guitar with a custom wound set of V90s and they are absolutely fantastic! Definitely deliver all the P90 goods. Beautiful acoustic like cleans, greasy, grinding overdrive, with the perfect mid range honk. These are the real deal and they look fantastic. Jesse us a pleasure to communicate with, and he’s definitely earned more of my business in the future.

that iconic "strat" tone. Great job.

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!

m wax potted. He had noticed that the bridge pickup cover had not been installed correctly and was not quite on all the way. He removed and replaced the cover, as well as the wax potting for a very reasonable price. Jesse is a great guy to work with and his customer service is truly amazing and appreciated. Thanks again!

meone who is passionate about their craft. 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.

s. Perhaps more importantly, the pickup he produced also exceeded expectations. Revel created a wonderful PAF-like pickup that was both versatile and purposeful, and they did it all in short time and with great communication. I'll definitely be back to try more of Revels offerings!

back sooner than expected. The pickup sounds great, and Jesse took the care to keep it as original as possible, which I love. Thanks for the excellent work.

s Alnico V Bully Breed P90s. 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!!!!!

rue. No joke. These are our go-to Tele pickups for all our builds! NECK The Black Watch neck pickup tone is unbelievable - sweet, clear, even, and pure. You might not want to play any other position than the neck! BRIDGE But then there's the bridge pickup...boy oh boy does it sing! The sustain is incredible and there is absolutely NO ice-pick in-your-face treble like so many Tele bridge pickups. PARALLEL Sometimes we hear from players that the middle position (with traditional wiring) on their Tele is unusable for whatever reason. That's just not the case here at all. These do something really special in parallel - you might just stay in middle position forever...it really gives you the best-of-both worlds! SERIES We've also been obsessed with 4-way Tele wiring, with 4th position in series, and let us tell you - WOAH! We were blown away by the sound of these when they're in series...it's like having an extra boost to really kick you in the teeth with punchy tone that's STILL clear and even. We have no idea why you wouldn't wire these up this way! JESSE On top of all else, Jesse is a true joy to work with. He is super communicative & responsive and answers any questions you might have with clear, easy to understand answers. Bottom line: he's a really good dude making kick-ass pickups how they should be: by hand, just for you. End of story! Do yourself a favor and buy the Black Watch set from Jesse NOW!

dunno if I should blow $825 on another guitar" and walked out without it. 21 years later, Fender reissues the telecaster deluxe and I pick up a Vintera with the sunburst I always wanted. The one thing that needed fixing was the pickups: they were dull and uninspiring humbuckers packaged as WHRBs. There were a few options to choose from, and I had a specific requirement: I wanted to be able to split the coils, so I needed a 4 wire conductor. Several other makers told me in no uncertain terms that I was "doing it wrong." When I talked to Jesse, however, he told me he'd make it with either 2 or 4 wires, however I wanted it. He took the time to explain what makes a WRHB different, what he personally loved about the sound, asked me what I wanted to do with them and what kind of stuff I played. Fast forward to today. After playing these pickups for close to a year now, I can say that they are my favorites. They brought my tele deluxe to life. They have all the chime, sparkle, beef, crunch, all of it. The note definition is fantastic, you hear every note in every chord. They sing sweetly, they bark when you hit them, the neck is soulful and the bridge has just the right amount of bite without piercing. Splitting the pickups works marvelously, and each coil has a different character. The bridge furthest back can do Zappa's icepick attack, it cuts through a mix like nothing else. The neck split is warm with a different midrange emphasis in each coil. These WHRBs are unique. They're without a doubt the most lively and rich humbuckers I've played and have made my tele a fantastically versatile instrument. Jesse told me that these were his favorite to play, and it shows in the quality of the build and the sound it produces. I no longer regret leaving behind that tele all those years ago. I have the perfect deluxe. Get these. You will not be disappointed.

r. Frankly, the neck pickup is perhaps the best pickup I’ve ever played. It sounds so sweet and present; Baffling, like being in love. I have mine hooked up to a series/parallel switch and there’s just a sound in there for everything.
