8 is quite a few, especially when I’m not even counting the ones I’ve forgotten about and I don’t make money using them to pay for them.
So, what pickups do you "have on hand" these days?

Indeed it is... swapped the guard to try a Brobucker but the Crazy 8 & Cool Rails was a better match for that strat. Soon I'll have a Brobucker in the parts drawer.

Yes, spares. We know we all have a ton actually in guitars. But that can lead to a bench waiting to "get in the game."

I've done an awful lot of swapping and tone chasing since Tommy Doyle wound me my first bespoke PAF set in '76.
Haven't made a spreadsheet but I'd estimate my loose pickup inventory at about 120.
Mostly humbuckers. Couple of dozen singles - mostly Strat, a handful of Tele.
Plus a box of oddities and one or two dead -but-possibly-repairable.
About a quarter of 'em are pulls - sellable but not worth the trouble so far, or nearly-worthless stock pickups.
Another twenty or so are intended for specific guitars in my fleet; just haven't got around to trying 'em there yet.
A few dozen are keepers, either great-but-currently-unused ones 'that I might want someday,' or rare birds & oddballs.
But many are good pickups that just didn't suit my taste or ones that I simply don't have any use for now.
One of these days I'll get around to doing a big selloff. Been thinking about a BOGO deal: "Buy one, get one from the bargain list."
