Hi Nigel
Heres the links for you mate
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140325965826&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT - sorry seems right now he aint got any but maybe worth asking him if hes gonna be getting some !

you want 0.063mm gauge wire

i would have thought there was some suppliers over your side of the pond somewhere ?
let me know if you need anymore help with the winding side of things - remember dont try and make the spool of wire turn when your winding the pickup the wire will just break - i slide a rod in the centre of the wire spool and lay it horizontal and the wire just unwinds itself without the spool turnind - thats the biggest mistake people make
