the Hy-Bro neck is in!

We may do a meet up for those at NAMM in January.

So 10 years later nothing was ever created? Wow. What was the end result? This thread just ended with no conclusion. This is the ultimate cliffhanger ending 10 years in the making.

There *have* been SDUGF meetups at the factory over the last 20 years, but it is harder to put together than you realize. Lots of forum members have also got together unofficially over the years (a few weeks ago, I got together with forum members Aceman and BTMN). I am planning on being at NAMM this year for SD's 50th anniversary. If there are forum members who are going, we can meet up there.

I was talking about the forum pickup. How did that NOT happen (the Hy-Bro)? I was part of several forum pickups before that, Brobucker, Fuglybucker, Charlie Christian Staple one, Crazy 8, and several other ones I'm forgetting now. Nothing has happened since then? That was 10 years ago.

the phat staple was a very cool pup. the brobucker and stratbro90 are still my favorites.

the hybro didnt happen for a variety of reasons id guess. same with an official get togethers.

Yeah I forgot about the Stra-bro 90. Funny I got all of them but then from like 2015 till now I've been gone from the forum and no forum pickups since then? What happened? What did I miss?

Many people who work for SD now are spread out all over the world since the pandemic. They aren't all in California. Before the pandemic, things like marketing, etc were done directly from the factory.
Thing is, anyone here is welcome to organize a get together, or design a forum pickup. You would probably have to guarantee a certain number of sales, and pre-pay, but we aren't stopping anyone from organizing that.

If I was a rich man I've thought it would be cool to have my own "microrun" of pickups.

Order 100 CS pickups and then distribute them by some merit other than money.

You could try winding them
Then write your name on them
Sell them as your custom wind

Or order them from an Asian builder
Write your name on them and just market them as your custom wind
