pickups not very overwound, I just want them slightly hotter than normal ones because i don't want to lose much strat caracter, I want a nice compromise between a typical 60s strat sound and output to match the p90! another note, all musicman axis necks are unfinished, or with a satin finish, i want a gloss nek finish because i prefer the feel of that, i have very sweaty hands. the headstock should still match the body> satin finish i will also add the pictures mentioned for the other people on this baord to look at |

normal strat pickups are only about 6K... so if you want them to match the output of a HOT 14K P90, (typical P90 is only 7-9K as well!) then they will indeed have to be VERY overwound! Probably you will have to lower the HOT P90 quite a bit, if you want to acheive volume balance with any 'normal' strat single coil... |

LOTS! Actually - too many for me to remember off-hand CS-0015 and CS-0059 and CS-1946 come to mind - and you will be able to see a nice list 'one of these days" in the near future - as Shamray promised me he will be posting bios for all of our crafters soon... |

the 'sealer' coat actually gets sanded COMPLETELY off in the next step, so the stain has no problem penetrating the wood. Its job is only to fill deeper than normal pores in the wood, so that pigment doesnt accumulate in them when it gets the color coat. It seems awfully labour intensive (and it is!) but it does ensure a smoother, more even finish in the long run... |

It seems that the bridge we got for it was DEFECTIVE (saddles didnt line up evenly, and it only became evident just when it was about to go on!) - so Shamray is out trying to find another black bridge for you... | |

Yes, and I am told today that there are no more Hipshot bridges in Moscow - which means we will have to order another one from the factory in USA (2-3 weeks delay!) | |

No kidding! unfortunately, your beautiful guitar has been put ON HOLD again Which is a shame, as i was very much looking forward to play-testing it this week (and you even more so, im sure!) This afternoon, I personally ordered another bridge for you direct from the Hipshot factory in New York - and they will send it out "Global Priority Mail". So, if it doesnt get stuck in customs (cross your fingers!) then it could be here in a week or so... |

Apparently there 'was' one in stock, but it disappeared! (some mixup in the parts room) I ordered one as soon as it was discovered to be missing, and it should be here in a couple of days. Anyway, we shall need a couple more days for setup and testing... |

Maar ze maken wél heel mooi spul, het wachten is niet altijd even leuk....maar wat maakt 't uit : een gitaar gaat minstens 50 jaar mee...tijd genoeg nog... Kijk : je kunt natuurlijk ook vanmiddag een "lopendebanduitdezaagmolen gitaar" in de winkel gaan kopen ...waar je morgen al spijt van hebt... |

Het is heel simpel ... de bouwtijd die je verteld wordt moet je met een hele grote korrel zout nemen! Dat voorkomt teleurstellingen. Ik doe sinds mijn 1ste de "verwachte" bouwtijd maal 2 en dat klopt tot nu toe aardig. Verder heeft Paul volkomen gelijk hij is niet voor niks aan zijn 4e toe! ( wat me er aan herinnerd dat ik achter loop :P ) | |

im sending the pickup back this evening, Im not under the impression that theyre as hot as my p90, whats the DC resistance of them? btw. i screwed the middle pickup way down because i only need it for the parallel settings and its in the way when i pick (used to playing les pauls). | |

I dont know the exact resistance, we just made them "hotter" than a normal strat (in keeping with the workorder requirement that they still sound strat-ish) The first 'overwound' set we made was just WAY TOO QUIET by comparison, this second set keeps up about as well as can be expected... In order to make them as hot as that (extremely hot) P90 you sent us - they would have to be monsterously overblown! (pretty much impossible to cram that much wire on a strat bobbin) |
