Rewind for Stringmaster T8 pickup

Post by Claude Kutaka »

The pickup for the ground side of the balance pot is not working. Are there any recommendations for someone who can rewind it? Please provide contact info also. Thanks

Jason Lollar wound these pickups for my sshawaiian 10-string pic below; and sounded more like a stringmaster than a stringmaster.
Jason is KING at replicating the exact sound of any hawaiian/lap/non-pedal(whatever ya'll want to call them) that's out there.

Ricky,That 10 string is sweet! Did you make it?
Yes I made that(with a partner Archie Cox who made his own); my design and my piece of Australian Silky Oak Wood I got from Australia when I was there in late 90's; touring.
All the metal was machined solid Brass by my long time old steel playing friend Dave Parker.
Jason Lollar designed and built the Stringmaster style pickups with blend; and that was it.
Here's me playing it on "Live in London" with Dale Watson>
