Fret dress on Fender Strat: The guitar has never played better.
Heard your pickups on my mate’s guitar – fantastic. I want some!
Pair of MoJo Bluesman Double Black Humbuckers: My mate loves your pickups and I’ve got to the point where I’ve put my other guitar away!
Great set up on the Strat. But even better – replacing my Fender Texas Specials with your MoJo Texas Hots really made a big difference.
Just a quick thank you for the set up on my Blade tele – guitar feels so much smoother to play, and is noise free!
You kindly made me some pickups based on my request of trying to achieve a type of sound for my Les Paul.
I wanted the sound or character of Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, Paul Kossoff.
I have actually got round to fitting them in a Telecaster to sound check them and get a feel for the sound of these pickups, ready for the install in the USA Les Paul guitar.
OMG! The sound of these is incredible! The voicing and tone is amazing and I can’t thank you enough.
I have previously installed Gibson 490 and 498 buckers, Seymour DuncanSH-1 & SH-4JB and they’re not as good, in my opinion, as your pickups.
I am a bit odd, looking for the ultimate tone and your “Bonamassa” pickups are there.
Just waiting until I need to re-string the Les Paul and they’re going in! – S.F.
I’ll vouch for the Squier set-up, it was done for my cousin Noel. I’ve played it and it sounds brilliant.
New hand-cut nut for Takemine G series: Great job.
Bespoke set of humbuckers made to the customer’s specification:
The pickups sound great. The bridge pickup is great driven. I run it through my Zakk Wylde gear and it’s outstanding.
Strat & Epi Casino fitted with hand-cut nuts and new tuners on the Strat: The Guitars have never sounded so good.
Cut Telecaster style headstock on a Strat sytle neck , vintage finish & fit: Nice Job
MoJo Hotbucker and a pair of MoJo El Paso single coils fitted to a Yamaha Pacifica: I like the way the Yamaha sounds now – sounds good clean and can be driven on with gain. So impressed with the tones.
Just letting you know I’ve got the pickups fitted and they’re brilliant. Much better than the Duncan JB/59 set they replaced – more alive, clear, open and 3-D sounding. Really happy with them, exactly what I was after. – D.McI
Mo did some work on my bass – great job, reasonable price.
Mo – thank you very much for the superb job in setting up my LAG guitar. A nice, clear sound and much easier to handle – M.L.
I’m just back from practicing with the rest of the band. The guitar has never sounded or played better. Thankyou for all the work you did to it, it’s better now than it ever was! – Gerry.
This guitar came in having not been played for years following a broken neck repair. It needed a new nut (hand-cut bone nut supplied & fitted), a couple of high frets lowered and re-crowned and then a set-up.

I’ve got a set of Mojo Tele pickups and they are spectacular. They easily stand up against the Bare Knuckle Brown Sugars I have.Mo’s a great guy and very easy to deal with.
Lovely job making the MoJo custom Tele Nashville guitar for me – really good.
