what just happened? My pickups really ARE magic..

You used babe magnets in those pickups, didn't you?

I like the gold top and the cherry burst best.

Speaking of gold tops...I Just finished two gold tops last weekend...I know what you are thinking...and NO I am not going to be trying to seduce either one!

Did you end up having any luck selling any of your guitars at the show?

[Alex R]

Could you tell the Markbass guys to hurry back and answer my email about the amp with the fried SMPS?

ETA shit, too late.

what just happened?

You meet an Swedish hooker who was dishing out pick-up lines instead of pickups?... Don't tell your wife that story,

Too late. Im not that smart. The only complaint she really had was that I didnt tell her I was married (i dont wear a ring due to machinery risks). Other than that she took it pretty good.

I think so - My sales staff dont tell us anything. They dont want to Jinx it I guess. I did get a really nice Carr Mercury Amp on the advise of Jason Lollar.

I actually liked those Bond guitars. I tried one out once, forget where, and the fretboard definitely took some getting used to. But after writing about the likelihood that such onboard electronics would be on the horizon in a few years, it was nice to actually see that prediction come true. I forget how it came up, but I was briefly in touch with Bond's son, and asked if he had a copy of the schematics for the onboard electronics. He said he looked, but ultimately he couldn't find anything. Pity.

Ok Here we go

For the schecter junkie...

(please forgive the crappy pictures)

These are behind the scene shots before the show opens. Hopefully you see what you are looking for!

Seymour Duncans Booth

Seymour Duncan and Co have a great booth. I love these guys. I dont think there are a nicer group of pickup makers out there. So professional, So innovative, and such great products. These were just broad shots of the booth and some stands of thiers...

[belwar]

Bill Lawrence

This was an interesting booth..

[belwar]

Next

These were the ugliest humbucker bobbins i've ever seen.

[belwar]

This was nordstrand (sp?) pickups? Very nice looking booth and some professional designs

[belwar]

Im not sure who this was but I liked thier packaging, and they had some nice covers so I snapped a few pictures. I think this was a chinese maker.. I like the humbucker cover with vertical slots - I might try that

[belwar]

The dregs

This is the last of my P/U pictures

These are just a few random shots I caught of booths walking around. Check out those crazy pole screws!

Also, I did take pictures of suhr, but they are on my other camera and I've got to dig them up.

covers

Those covers you like Belwar come out of KHL in Korea long with lots of other bits. There is a minimum but its mix and match and with your facilities I would think you would mahine your own from blanks. Here is the basic catalogue for you. http://wolf3.en.ec21.com/Pick_Up__Am...2_2813153.html
