Where can I get overwound Geddy P'up?

SquashedMan · #1 11-06-2008, 04:05 AM

Hey guys, in the massive 30 odd page "Geddy Lee Tone" thread, I remember there was speculation that Geddy's Jazz has its bridge p'up overwound. I was wondering whether it's possible to obtain the Fender "Vintage style" bridge pickups used in the geddy, but an overwound version of them?

Thanks in advance guys

I have a set of SD Bassline Antiquity 2's in my 73 jazz.That's about as close as you'll get.

Lots of people do.

You can try: Clint Searcy, Lindy Fralin, Jason Lollar, Stan Hinesley, and this stooge SGD Lutherie

There's many more too... but those were the ones that came to mind. If you Google pickup rewinding a lot of links come up.

Awesome! What's the best way to procure a second bridge pickup? This is in case i don't like the changed tone of course :P

I'm sure any of the above can wind you a new bridge pickups to your specs. That's actually easier than rewinding an existing pickup.

Clint has some cool neodymium Jazz single coils.
