Jerry, Thanks so much for building a great pair of pickups for my old d-12 Marlen. You did a super job of custom making them for the narrower string distance, and fitting them to castings on the cabinet, and all of the advice over the phone. That old guitar just sings now, and I love it!!!
Thanks Again!!!-----Mike

Can't say enough about the guy or his pickups.

He made me a set of Sho Bud pickups with white tops and different magnet heights for my new Marrs.

Shipped them to Duane and Jeff, swapped a TT that I wanted exchanged, all at a good price.

I love the two I'm using on my ProIII.

The string spacing on my guitar was was closer than most guitars, so he designed the pickup for the twelve posts on a ten string cabinet and had to build the pickup to fit into a ten string pickup cavity. Leonard Stadler built them that way in those days(1984). No complaints, I love my Marlen. I had a D-10 p/p 67, Ad-12 P/P in 72(I think) and this D-12 all pull in 84.
This was a big effort on Jerry Wallace's part.The price was right, the work was great, and the sound is wonderful.---Mike

I'll pile on here- just put a set of TT's on my Mullen and they're just great. Wonderful workmanship, super fast friendly service...I wish everything was this painless! Thanks, Jerry!

Jerry Wallace has really taken the single coil pickup to another level. Outstanding service and a great person also. Bravo Jerry.

If I could sing in key I would certainly sing Jerrys praises but alas I doubt if anyone would be impressed with my tone.
On the other hand everyone has been impressed with the tone of my Emmons P/P with the TT pickup which Jerry sent me.
It has improved my playing no end and I am grateful to Mr Wallace for an excellent pickup.
Best wishes to all
Billy

Gentleman, I thank you all very much for your business, compliments and feedback on my pickups.

I do strive to build each one as if I were playing it myself..As most of you know I have been playing the pedal steel since 1968 and I really do have some ideal of what we all are looking for in sound/tone.
