Jerry Wallace told me that he was making repros of the Bud single coils.

Spencer - I have had E66's and Wallace True Tones in my Pro 111. I am very happy with the combination of 'Bud and True Tones. It is the best the guitar has ever sounded to my ears.

Spencer, do you still have the original? Jerry can rewind it for you. If not, a Truetone wound to 17,500/11,500 is the magic pickup for a Pro I. Just tell Jerry it's for a Pro I, he will make the perfect drop-in pickup for you. Jerry can be reached at:
jerrywallacemusic@hotmail.com Jerry's prices are very reasonable, too. Hope this helps.

Spencer, I've got an original - the three mounting screw version - with a pretty warped top plate. Sounds good, though. Yours for free.

Jerry rewound mine and it's perfect. I could not be happier with the pickup and the service I received.

I also have a Jerry Wallace rewound Sho Bud pickup. Sounds great. Great service too.
