The New Blog

Just so you guys all know I will be building a new blog soon that will allow me to have a few more functions that this one. Stay Tuned.

In the meantime I think it's appropriate to use this one to post the final chapter on the flood drama that has been my life for about 2 years now.  












Part 3 coming in May 2012 .


Searcy Rebuilds a National, Supro, Valco, Guitar Pickup

Thursday, March 22, 2012

What now?

For two years I have been repairing the flood damage on my home cars and shop. All the while I have known that when I returned to the pickup winding world I was going to have to rethink my approach. My new line of pickups will not be copies of Gibson and Fender classic. They will be MY designs. I have ideas.... new ideas... This week I finally got to build one of the ideas that's been bouncing around my head for the last 2 years. This is a Dog Ear p-90 that requires no routing of the guitar. It works for any string spacing and it's totally hum free. Still tweaking the number of windings I want it to have but it's going to be a classic.
