In the absence of the Jason Lollar book...

[St_Genesius]

What volumes exist to help people interested in home pickup winding? I may be moving soon and the house I might be moving into would afford me a bit more space for hobbying. I figure a decent workbench, a cheap guitar, a soldering iron, a handheld router and a basic pickup winder could amount to a ton of fun.

I recall a couple of years ago everyone was talking about a book by Jason Lollar on the subject. I even came close to ordering it a couple of times, but never got around to it. Now, it would seem that it is out of print. Searches of both Froogle and eBay haven't turned up any copies. So what's the book du jour for this subject?

I thought there was a thread regarding info on the internet, but I couldn't find it. Apparently there is some stuff on the internet regarding winding.

BTW, Lollar posts here frequently.

John's a great guy, and he has a whole section describing how he built his pickup winder ( complete with pictures ).
