Guitar Builders
I am ever keen to help fellow guitar builders and pickup winders.
Work on the website is ongoing and information here will improve in due course.
In the meantime, please free to Contact me direct with anything you need or if you have a problem that needs solving.
I'll soon be adding items that I have already designed and either have ready or can quickly print or fabricate.
​​
​I'm always interested in helping out if there is a particular problem you have encountered where you need a specific jig that you can't make/can't find/is too expensive to buy. Drop me a line and let's see. I like solving things and will ultimately add anything new to my list of 'things'. What I'm saying is that something novel won't cost the earth. If I can do it, you could get something bespoke at off the shelf prices.
​
On top of all the expected guitar building tools I have invested in a couple of 3d printers, a diode laser, CNC machine and wood turning lathe and so from templates to jigs to bespoke wooden control knobs there is plenty that can be done.
If I was to put forward a mission statement it would be low volume, high quality work with good communication and attention to detail.
My ambitions are simple done well, anything "interesting" approached with glee and a desire to grow by reputation and word of mouth, to be the trusted point of contact and help the same people year after year.
I don't have staff, big overheads or heavy expenditure on advertising. I much prefer what I do have - time and enthusiasm.
Pickups.
I make pickups from scratch. I typically won't have a bunch on the shelf ready to go and I don't have the imagination to come up with cool names.​ I wish I did!
​
What I do have is full control of the whole process of pickup winding from start to finish.
I stock vulcanised fibreboard and after designing it, I'll cut the flatwork on a diode laser. Bobbins are assembled here and winding is done on a Mojotone pickup winder with a variety of wire gauges before optional wax potting.
​
I can be quite flexible and will happily cut flatwork to your design 4/6/7 poles etc. with engraved branding etc.
I can assemble bobbins with different heights between top and bottom flats or wider/narrower flatwork to adjust the nature of the available winding area.
​
Customised stuff isn't expensive at all.​ Individual design needs will be discussed and costed.
​
I can put together Strat/Tele style single coils as well as P90's and Humbuckers.
Other passive pick up types such as Firebird mini humbuckers are possible, please get in touch. ​​
​
I have a dedicated guitar for quick pickup charges so everything is tested by ear before dispatch.
​
All pickups are scatter wound with techniques ranging from those where the wire distribution is guided by hand under thumb and finger tension to my own jig where adjustable tension is regulated and the scatter is more defined.
​
Get in touch and I will quote though there is a guide to pricing below.
Prices do not include P&P.
There is no VAT to add.
​
These are high quality, hand wound pickups to your specification, prices are not boutique.
