Does anyone know who could repair Bill Lawrence pickups? I have tried to contact the company but no response. Thanks very much for any recommendations. |

I saw a posting on Facebook that "Lace" was going to produce Lawrence pickups, after Bill passed. Since they apparently are making them, they may be able to repair one.
According to their web site, there is a presence in Nashville:

Located in Richie Owen's Old Time Pickin' Parlor in East Nashville, the new center will have many Lace pickup-equipped guitars on display to sound test. Sales and service is also available at the Pickin' Parlor. Touring musicians, trade and the public is welcome!

Any competent pickup winder that also does rewinds can rewind one unless there's something weirdly exotic about it. _________________ No chops, but great tone

Robert,
I've haven't used Jerry Wallace personally (yet!) but I have used Tom Brantley. He re-wound a vintage 70's DiMarzio Super Distortion for me that sounded like an ice pick & looked like it had been drug through a war. When I got it back it sounded fantastic. I had him keep the relic look.
