Title - looking to change out the pickups on a fanned 8 I have and it seems that rewinding may be a simpler (and maybe cheaper) alternative to ordering a custom angled set.
If I was to commission this through someone like Lundgren, would it be as simple as saying "hey, make the bridge an M8 and the neck a Black Heaven 8" and send my pickups over to Sweden?
Are there any major limitations to rewinding? If the pickups are two conductor, are they able to be rewired when getting rewound into four conductor? Is the pickup effectively gutted and solely the baseplate carried over the new wound?
