I've been a bit quiet here recently due to work commitments, including the development of pickups for the Oni instruments, which is getting some sweet results So, my question for all you lovely peeps is.....
How much interest is there in me making a range of 8+ string pickups available? Pricing would be similar to the other guys making similar products and there would be the option of custom string spacings, number of strings, angled for multiscale instruments etc... at additional cost to cover special jigs, templates and other subcontracted machining.
I'm using custom made polepieces, magnets, baseplates and flatwork for this stuff. Both humbuckers and singlecoil are possible, no problems, and maaaaybe 7 string units. For the standard 8's I'd have a baseplate made to fit the RG8 machining nicely, along with a more traditional HB baseplate. It would be a couple of months before I could get this happening. I need genuine interest here, don't say you will if you almost certainly won't
