Anyone willing to give me pickup repair help?

I have these 2 pickups that I tore apart at some point for whatever reason (damned if I can remember). 1 is a Dimarzio Humbucker from Hell and the other is an SD 59n. Would anyone with pickup tech experience be willing to fix them for me? I could ship them to you. I'm in NJ, right outside of Philadelphia.

It doesn't look like you did anything more than take the coils off the base plates. None of the wiring seems disconnected. All you should have to do is take the 4 small screws out of the coils and put the coils back on the plates. Then just tighten them back down.

I'm getting no output on the 59. Something is definitely disconnected.

I seem to recall that I tried swapping baseplates at one point, so I could install the 59 in my Wolfgang.

Swap the base plate with a DMZ over just trimming the Duncan tabs?

Fill in your location, there could be someone local to you.

I know you realize that you have the baseplates swapped; I'd swap them back. The HFH coils won't fit well on that Duncan baseplate because it doesn't have holes for the second set of pole screws.
