Rickenbacker pickup re-winding

Post by Bob Bernhard »

I have a ten string Rickenbacker Jerry Byrd Model with a dead pickup. Any leads on a rewind/recharge. Pots need clean-up, too.

Lucky for you, the SGF has an outstanding group of specialists for such a pick up. I'm sure at any moment a reply will pop up from one the guru's of Ric pickups and inform you of your task at hand, who can do it right, and the approximate cost. When the word RICKENBACHER is mention, the room goes silent and heads turn.

Well.. My vote is for Jason Lollar. He has wound numerous Rick pick ups for me in recent years, including the Corian seven string pictured at the left(headstock)

Bill, I was wondering what guitar that was! I just think slotted headstocks are the sexiest thing on the planet. I hope you don't mind me saying that about your steel.
