| P90 in a Bucker Cover.
A couple of guys have asked me where Spence is, as he's not been around lately. Well he's overworked and doing well. I know how busy he is as it's a job keeping up with him for flatwork and laser bits but it's worth it when you see his end results. He just sent me these which are one set of 3 new pickups he has got under his wing and all going on his site soon. He wasn't gonna post them here as he got a bit pissed off a few months ago at something nobody picked up on, including me, when a junior member called him a miserable tosser because Spence spotted a ringer in his sound samples straight away. The dear old sheep shagger does tell it like it is but isn't verbally rude to people and that guy upset him. Still he is still here and will like Sam pop up maybe sometime. On to pickups and the question often asked is where to get bucker covers with no holes including plastic ones and Spence replied "Make your own covers" in his vacume form thread and here are the finished items. Full p90 bobbin/keeper/mags/spacers and bucker baseplate with correct hookup. I'll say well done to him and hope this inspires a few more guys to go further in the home grown parts dept. |

One minute of your time please - Blindtest time! I didn't read that particular post, however, I am sorry Spence was upset by this. The newb was being a troll. In the states I believe the insult would translate as "slacker masterbator." I'v had similar troll encounters, but hey, it's the internet. Some people's true personalities come out when they are anonymous. That newb is still here, and probably needs to come clean. Hopefully my intervening doesn't offend. The covers are beauties! | |

I did say The old Sheep Shagger had three new pickups being launched and this is no 2. I think he has done these in Possum's honour and pretty they sure do look.
