Original 'bud pickups were all over the place--13K to 24 K is what I've seen. Ideal We've found is 17.5K and coiltap at 11K. Hope this helps. Jerry Wallace can rewind original Shobud pickups to your taste, or just buy Truetones--same thing in a different wrapper.

Thanks James. Good to hear from you. Hope you're doing well. Do you have any extra pickups you'd sell ?
