I apologize for putting this in the Pickup Lounge, but I can find no better place to post. I can't find anything on the new website. I'm a long time user of SD pups and long time member of the forum. I'm planning my next guitar build. When I tried looking for Seymourized Firebird mini-HBs, all I...

I bought two SD 59s to put in a Strat. What I didn't realize was I had bought 2 conductor pups. Not the 4 conductor pups I need to "bridge" coils from different pups. I call it Bridging, not sure what the right term is (i.e. Neck pickup screw side with middle pickup slug side, etc). So the...

Any one know the length of the magnets SD uses in the '59 pups?

I'm trying to wire up a Les Paul with p90s. It seems like everything is going to ground. I've attached a copy of my wiring diagram. Can someone look at it and see if I've made a mistake? I'm shooting for 50s mod with Treble Bleed.

I just got a Alnico II Pro Tele Lead. The wires are Yellow and Black, but none of the wiring diagrams included even show a yellow lead. Can I assume yellow is hot and black is negative?

As far as product development goes, if they built a six-string version of this: http://www.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2016/USA/SG-12-String-Neck-Through-Limited.aspx at a reasonable price, I'd be very interested.

Re: Original Little 59s? OK, I have custom-made hard-tail mahogany Strat body (routed S-S-S) with a Fender rosewood on maple neck. When I built it, 10+ years ago, I put a Little '59 in the neck position, a Duckbuster in the middle and a Hotrail in the bridge. The Neck and Middle pups are...

Is it possible to get the original style Little '59 rail pups? I'm looking to change a pickup and have it match the other rails already in the guitar.

Anyone know where I could find rollers for a nut or bridge? I'm looking at making a roller nut and bridge for a lap steel, but can't find anywhere to buy the rollers.

Hi, I'm Steve, I'm a cancer...Oh, it's not that kind of "pick-up lounge!" Well... I'm working on my tele project. MIM body (Alder I think) with a 50s RI MIJ tele neck. My new plan is to put a SM-3 (Seymourized Mini HB) in the neck and a JD lead in the bridge. My questions: 1) Does that...

I'm thinking of putting a lsr nut on an Am Std neck. In theory I could do it myself, but I don't really want to risk it on a $300-400 neck. I can pack up the neck and send it to somebody, but who? (A) I want to get my neck back, and (B) I want the cut and install to be right. Anybody have...

I just got this new neck with locking tuners and I can't get them to unlock. It's a Deluxe Strat neck with Fender/Schaller locking tuners. Can anyone help me?

I bought a V neck from a Am Deluxe Strat. I want the more modern features with the feel of an old V profile. The neck arrived today and I thought he had sent the wrong neck, the "V" is so whimpy. Are all the Deluxe Vs this same profile? I might have to become a "C" player. That was the...

Hello Tone Fans, I was getting my Epiphone Emperor ready to sale and while I was checking it out, I found that all the pots were shot. I've pulled one out. It's one of those tiny little pots with a long shaft. The only marking I can make out is "B5." So I'm not sure what value they are. I...

Can someone tell me what FSR stands for? :question:
