    Ah, fair play. Is that a '55/'59 set or a Hybrid? I had a '78/'59 Hybrid made about 4 years ago (I'll have to check the box) and it's probably one of the best that I own and I do have a LOT of pickups both, bought and self-made.

    I am getting the prototypes made perfect and then going through patents.

    They are a standard range, a special range and then whatever custom you want that I can do.

    Some magnets may be an issue to get hold of but, anything is on the table.
    Anything is possible, just not always advisable...

      What magnet is in your '78/59 hybrid? Kinda curious about how that pickup sounds...
      Epiphone Les Paul Tbte Plus (SD custom shop humbucker & SH2b neck)

        An A2. So, it's pretty much a stock '78 with a '59 coil.

          No hybrids, just a bog standard '59 neck and SH-55 bridge. They work really well in this guitar.

            For those who are interested in the tone of this rather odd pickup, I did a quick mix of a few guitar parts (again, in GearBox) just to demonstrate how it sounded in a mix. Again, forgive the playing; it's more just to demonstrate the tone.
