hell yeah Tony that pup looks sensational, DB is going to love this.
I might be interested in a set of tele, strat or humbuckers, might send you a private message to have a chat about it if you are up for winding a set, no hurry
Looks great Tony. When I get my new glasses (getting old) I'll try winding my own pups again. Really interested to hear how she sounds.
cheers,
Gav.
cheers Tony, I have sent you a PM on your RYOGuitars FB page
Oh wow... I missed this thread...
Those pups look really nice, cant wait to get my sweaty hands on them.
Thanks heaps Tony :)
I knew you would be stoked DB, the pups should sound awesome. Are they going in the tele bass DB or another build ?
When are you going to request an Iceman or Mosrite shape bass DB ? hahha
Alls good hope you enjoy them, just got to wind the neck RWRP and you got no hum, unless you want it wound straight up?
Yes to RWRP please :)
sounds good DB should be a weapon of a bass
pretty sure DIY Guitars sold an iceman bass DB !
Wasn't that already part of Rammsteins stage show last tour?
Are you going to be coating this in Vanta Black, the black so black that it doesn't reflect light?
The black so black that you have to be a fourth circle satanist (or 5th level vegan) to be evil enough to be permitted to paint with it?
The black so black that even dark goths think it might be too black?
You could do a reverse burst, with a lightened edge and Vanta Black at the centre, so that when a person gazes upon this thing of evil you have crafted their soul becomes drawn into the bass and they remain there in limbo adding their spectral voices to the minor notes!
Or am I over thinking this thing?

20% Bees Wax

Thanks

Time for a swim
Once the pickup is out
good stuff Tony, good to see the deep fryer put to good use !
Looks healthier than deep fried chips too !
Yeah thats another $100 to set that up, then go out and buy wax, its a good setup though, and i thought that one out myself. :p
nice tutorial Tony, it is probably easy to you who have been doing it for years. Sure there is so much to learn winding your own pickups and learning from mistakes the hard way on the way !
Its a thinking mans game the old pickups, and i do wiring as well so icop it from both directions lol. You get asked for some radical moves thats for sure, sometimes the best is looking you in the eye, with all this over wound under wound, scooped mids etc etc, with over wind you get more bottom, with an underwind you get more tops, to scoop the mids use different magnets combinations etc etc, i just like to be up front and if someone doesnt like my wind they can give it back and i will refund the bucks or wind another differently.
People say they want to hear this and that, once we leave the domain of the guitar we are into the leads then the effects then the amps, there is alot of variables make up a sound.
Noice.
I await with sweaty palms and baited breath for these guys to arrive.
Thanks heaps Tony :)
Hey DB did you read the fine print from Tony ? he said cost to supply to a Pies fan is double ? haha
Pleasure DB
See how slow Aussie Post is with and Express Package Melbourne the Perth, i will even alow for the weekend :D
haha good one Pest, Roos fans pay a grand per pickup hahah
All this and i havent even charged up the CNC winder in earnest.
There are some mean tricks i can pull with that baby once i get my head around the software properly.
St Kilda supporters get a session on the yeast and a free set of strings ;)
haha good one Tony, did I tell you Saints were my 2nd AFL team ? bwhahahha
