It was only a matter of time before someone else copied them. I believe Kent used to make a similar pickup. I wonder what these Diesel brand pickups sound like?
Has anyone checked the dimensions yet to see if they are accurate in that regard?

The toaster pickup has been copied many times. There were one or two at this years' NAMM. Somebody in China is making a, er, BOAT load of these without regard to intellectual property protection.

How good could a pickup be for $23?
It'd be fine for wall art, but a functioning Rick? Not a chance!

Pretty cheap for a diesel pickup. Make sure your mechanic gives it a good once over.

I understand they're hard to start when it's cold.

I'm sorry, Aitch....
That was uncalled for, and not very nice on my part....

What are you talking about, Melibee? I must have misinterpreted your post..... or you've misinterpreted mine.... It's all good fun and banter!
Absolutely no apologies necessary, my dear friend!!
