I have a BL710 pickup on my Emmons LGII and I discovered today that the pickup was "wobbling" and when I touched the pickup I felt that the "coil part" (what do you call it?) has come loose from its baseplate (if that's the correct term?) Can I just glue it back on with some sort of adhesive? Is anyone familiar with the problem?

This has happened to 2 of my Bill Lawrence pickups. I used epoxy and spread open the gap between the base and the pickup housing and put the epoxy in there. Then squeezed the pickup back together and clamped it. You can trim the extra epoxy off before it completely sets up.
I hope BL addresses this problem in the future. Maybe they have already fixed the problem. I have not been too happy about it.
Good luck.
