Thanks John!
'Course, you know someone will ask about the 605 and 910, too!  |

Hey John, you'd better clarify widemount vs. narrow mount, too.  |

| I've got a more useful request-----provide the identifying guidelines to tell the diff between 710 and XR-16. |

Measuring the Inductance (Henry's) will give you the best results.
The 710 I measured was an old one that did not have a cover.
(Bill made them that way for a short period of time early on.)
XR-16 24-30K, 16H
710 16-20K, 12H

I have a BL910 measuring @ 30kohms on a Fluke 77.It has the single pole pieces sticking up, but just as wide as the 710. Good bottom end and mid.

A picture is worth a thousand words. I had one of those 705's in a Sho-Bud 6139 in the early 80s. Great sounding pickup. I wish Bill was still making those. I just recently ordered a 710 narrow mount for my Mullen, directly from Bill Lawrence. It's in the mail.

| Bobbe Seymour sells the 705 that is supposed to be the same as the old ones. Check it out on his website. http://www.steelguitar.net/ |

I bought a used, what was advertised as a BL 710. It measured out 30k ohms. Regardles it sure sounds good in my guitar.
