In one of the last threads about horseshoe pickups i asked if anyone had any ideas on how to make a horseshoe pickup cover to use with the hi-gain pickup.If anyone has done this please could you e-mail me with how it was done thank you.

easy:


voila!

This is much harder to do;

Jared,Is that a heliarcer?

Good eye Ken, Yeah that's a squarewave TIG welder on the left-MIG w/spool gun on right.

Left out photos of my DC inverter cause it won't do Aluminium well. No money for an AC/DC inverter-unless I sell something I don't play.

Will one of those 8-stringers (preferably the blue one) do the trick?

Thank you Jarad could you e-mail me the dimensions/instructions of the horseshoe covers so i can get it made correctly.Once again thank you.

Shawn-

I do not have the dimensions written down.

Everything is handmade.

Steve-

If any of the 8's go, it will be the White one first.


The AC/DC inverter goes for $2800!

Thanks Jarad just trying to work out how to go about getting it made the diagrams are a big help but any steps on making them would be very helpfull as i have been looking for something like this for a long while.

Shawn-

Do you want something like this,

which fits OVER the hi-gain? You don't even have to unsolder the wire leads.

This has to be handmade as the angle of each p'up varies slightly on the older 4001s. The only critical measurement is the bolt hole centers. The height can be determined by personal preference.

The other model

incorporates the mounting plate, so the screw hole become critical. Again I do not have a template or diagram-just use the original

You could try this guy.
