hi everyone,
i've got an old sho-bud professional d-10, mid 70s i think, that's just aching for some new pickups (the stock pickups are so microphonic i can talk into them and hear it loud and clear through my amp). i can't seem to find any info on replacement pickups that will fit right into a sho-bud without any adapters or mess.
ideally i'd love some used george l's - i'd like to get a little closer to that fuller emmons p/p sound than my “tinny” sho-bud sound.
any suggestions?
thanks!

| Add me to the list of satisfied Sho~Bud rewind customers. Mine sounds fat and his turnaround time can't be beat! Definitely go for it. You won't be sorry. |

BTW,
Let me add that Jerry rewound my pickups on my 73 ProII and I could not have done any better anywhere at any price!
