I had Jerry Blanton build a two pickup steel for me in the late 70's,I am in the process of putting it back together...I like Dan Tyack's sound a lot I was wondering if someone could recommend which pickups to get,the guitar has a volume ,and tone pot that can be rewired,it also has a three way toggle switch that can be used,Thanks Stu

Hey Stu,
I'm no expert but I can render an opinion with the best of 'em!
I think it'd be cool to try a GeorgeLs 10-5. I think this is similar to the Emmons Pentad p/u. It comes with a 5 position switch 5 different settings. It could be wired to run alone or with your "bridge" p/u. I assume it has 2 s/c and 2 h/b positions
Lookie here
I'm working on something like your setup myself. Considering a TrueTone s/c low and a GeorgeLs 10-5 up above.
Maybe Dan'll check in. |

| STU....If the 1/2 stops works better that the ones Duane Marrs sent me (that I added heavier springs to) I'll get another for the 83 Sho-Bud in Anchorage....(I was hoping I could drop your name to Ray and the boys..!)..Thanks, Larry |
