Spence	Re: how to make pickups Fred, the wife is right behind me now which is a novelty. I like it! There's not many of us in the UK doing this for money so the market really only knows about Seymour Duncan and DiMarzio. But there are three excellent pickup producers here one of whom is so publicity shy it's unreal. But his stuff is all vintage and indistinguishable from the real thing. The two others I'm talking about make a range of machine only and scatter-wound. People are starting to be aware of some of you guys too and the prices are real competitive in 'Rip-off Britain'. I'm the new kid on the block but the customer feedback has been beyond my wildest dreams as I'm just a humble postman during the day. I'll look after my wife when the money coming in is more than that going out...heck she desrves it! I must have a look at one of these Coweco winders. Sounds fantastic for turning out stuff fast. How much was it and is there a website?
