Howdy,The hum in my BR-9 is starting to get to me. I'd like to put in a replacement pick-up that both sounds good and fits into the existing slot without having to drill additional holes. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot, Ian |

Ian, I would check with Jerry Wallace. He can probably rewind yours and leave the stock appearance. ------------------ Emmons Legrande II, D10, Gibson Console Grande D8, Peavey Session 2000, Peavey Nashville 112.

Jason Lollar is also terrific at this. I wouldn't replace it, I'd get it fixed. Jason or Jerry is the way to go. |

Jerry Wallace rewound a defective 1956 Gibson pickup for me. He not only nailed the impedence, the workmanship was such that he restored the original appearance. It is exactly like the originals. I highly recommend Jerry.Blake |

Thanks everyone,So, what would be the best way to go about this? Take the pick-up out and mail it to one of the guys you've mentioned, I suppose. How might I get in contact with, say, Jerry Wallace? Thanks again for the help, it's great to be back on the forum. Ian Reynolds |
