I spoke to Jim Morrison at Wirenetics yesterday about their stock of Plain Enamel. He replied that 'when it's gone, it's gone'.

And what about alternatives to plain enamel ... Like the Tim Shaw PAFs, polyurethane enamelled gibson made in the 80 I have these on my Les Paul Custom 85, I compared them with real PAFs yesterday, ok mine sucks !!!

But is really Plain enamel the only solution ?
I am in France, can I find some plain enamel in Europe ???
Do you kids stop shouting ... EVEN IF I UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIME I FEEL THE SAME F*CKING NEEEEED TO SHOUT !!!
Oh I did it !! ;-)

Well, let's put it this way; he sounded quite distant and not very well.

This place is usually a pretty civil place with most people not resorting to shouting and swearing to get their point across too.

Oh, Now he's wiping tears in class!! : ) You know, I talked to Jim for quite some time awile back. They are just not going to stock it anymore. They are a bit higher in price too- About 8, or 9 dollars per pound too.
Heres a pointer...They are a wire company....They also make 4 conductor as well for Seymour and a few others that have the $$$, but you have to get in at the right time to get a lot while they are making it because they normally do not stock it. Super nice stuff...

He probably said "You cannot petition the wire companies for PE!"

[David King]

You guys are making it sound like I can't live without this stuff. Up until this week I thought PE stood for polyethylene, -shows you what I know.

I actually like the shouting and cursing, it's easier to read and it just shows me how much you all care about these damned guitar pickups. It's as if they wouldn't exist without you. I'll bet you guys will be winding pickups long after the power grid is gone and we're all living in thatched huts again.

The word enamel always reminds me of my student days. Me and a friend shared a house where we had a rust-stained enamel bath tub. One day I decided to paint it with enamel paint. Wrong type of enamel and a very bad idea especially as my buddy took a bath before it was dry. The paint cemented his ass cheeks together and nobody wanted the job of seperating them for him.

Yes Jim Morrison alive and well and apparently blind. what they have is the bottom of the barrel PE, you tell them you want 42 gauge and it will show up measuring as fat as .0032" which is insane. If you ask for certain diameters they will say sure budddy ol' pal send us your money first, then when it shows up its entirely different. they are either blind or they have a micrometer that only reads to two places and is rusty and doesn't work right either. but they do the same thing with their poly wire, you order 43 gauge and get 42 heavy build. this is why its essential to own a good micrometer :-)
