I made the pickup. It is CC design somewhat. I used Padauk wood and stained it dark, a ceramic magnet, and a metal blade. I wound about 1.5 ounces of 43 gauge wire, and it measures just over 14K resistance.

SweeeeeT !
Creating Body Shape , and in particular Head Shape is the most difficult and artistic aspect of Branding.
Congratulations on your continued success, keep it up , the artform benefits greatly from your Made in USA steel guitars.
The more people support the few USA builders and ignore the influx of Low Quality off shore imports the better for the longevity of steel guitar innovation by American Artists.
