Advice on broken pickup

Post by Jim Gahring »

I Am refurbishing my old SHO-BUD. The C6 pickup has a cracked in half base. I Can't decide weather to to try and fix the bottom and rewind it or just get a new pickup. If I go with a new pickup which one should I go with?

Jim, if you want to keep your original look by using your original pickups, send them to Jerry Wallace of Truetone Pickups. He will fix even the broken bases and rewind them for you, and even coil tap them for you. Reasonable prices, too. 8)
