Jason Johnson and Mary Bond play a cover of Muddy Water's "Can't Be Satisfied." Truly one of my favorite blues songs. Playing on a hand made 4 string Cigar Box guitar. Hand wound pickup.

Thanks everyone! Tom, I made a 4 string single coil pickup. I used Paduk wood to make the bobbin, and 4 Alnico5 magnets. I wound 42awg wire onto it. It came out to right around 6500 wraps. Measured out to a very low DC resistance as the fewer magnets you have the more wraps you need.
