The Steel Guitar Forum

Take a look at the pickups listed on this MCI D-10 auction.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2514791755&category=621

The auction says the pickups are Barcus Berry's but they look like Bill Lawrence 705's to me. I'm not familiar with Barcus Berry pickups for steel. Anyone know what kind of pickups these are?

Barcus Berry pickups came stock on MCI/EMCI guitars when I worked there, but these are definitely not Barcus Berry's. They're Lawrence's of some type, but I'm not an expert on recognizing the different models.

Yes Chuck---I agree with you---they look like 705's to me.

I have a Lawrence 705 setting on my desktop and Looks the same.

Definitely a 705 in my opinion.
