OOOHH, that is so beautiful!!! Will you tell us how you did those beautiful holes???

Comment by King Harvest on April 17, 2013 at 7:46am

ahah, that's exactly what i mean: it took me eons to find my way through copper knots

Great job - nice clean lines and really original sound holes.  I admire people who wind their own pickups - I know that I'd end up with a lighter wallet and a big copper bird's nest so I stick to cheap pickups off the Internet.

i'm glad you like it. i made the pickup myself actually (very likely after i saw something similar on the web). still far from being satisfied with the results though:  low output volume due to small number of windings. it seems i can't find any suitable (and affordable) copper wire around

Very nice build. Is that a Ted Crocker pup? Great design and box.
