Can some one tell me what pick up this is? It's in my Fessy U12, don't know if it's original or not.
Thanks Larry

| As per Paddy, those two BL pickups look alike and it is either the 712 or the XR-16. |

| Good question. Don't know how you'd tell. Looks exactly like my XR-16. Looks a lot like Pete's 712. Don't recall if it's marked underneath. 710/12 is a popular Fessenden choice. Don't know if the XR-16 is in common use in Fessies. [This message was edited by Jon Light on 19 April 2006 at 03:14 PM.] |

| Check the ohms on the pickup. I'm not sure, but the 712 and the XR 16 may have different ohm levels. Otherwise, take it out and look on the bottom. |

| Of course Bill L could be having the last laugh--XR-16 & 712 might could be exactly the same inside and out. |
