  • sweet  w the Paddle build this wont find you up a creek...

  • Yup...that thing is awesome...!

  • happy to read your comments ;-) Regarding the fixing, I usually use thin nails and hammer them in - but carefully. A hit on the coil would possibly ruin the party

  • She's a Beauty Craig, I know the guys and gals who have used Elmars pups love em'. I may have to look one up for myself :-)

  • oh, good thinking... I guess thats about the only knock i have against this pickup, i dont know if they do have screws that small in (austria?) but, I looked all over and couldn't find any, i would much rather have screwed it down

  • Glue and brads. Even the brads weren't thin enough and the frame cracked a bit. Super glued it back together. Will probably hot glue some rope around it and over the wires to hide them to go with the nautical theme.

  • hey, how did you actually attach this? i couldn't find screws small enough so I actually glued a backing to it and then glued it straight to my instrument.

  • They DO sound great. Pickup right to 1/4" input. 

  • I have one of these and it sounds SWEET! I have a video posted of it

  • So...wow!...I am intrigued....how does it work and sound..? Feedback..? It looks gnarly!!
