Older Sho Bud Pickups, Highest bid?
These were on an early 70’s Sho Bud I bought two years ago on the forum and decided to re-build when I found the condition was not as decribed.
Both are split pickups and have very good tone.
As can be seen, both have very warped top plates.
I have thought that perhaps they could be slightly heated and pressed back flat with a flat caul and gentle clamp? Not sure if that is a good idea or not.
Also not sure how hard it would be to remove and replace the top plate?
Pickups are something I know very little about.
I was scared to mess with it because of the very fine wires in the coils.
I’d like to sell both together to the highest bidder by Sunday the 16th of November.
Will include the harness with three way toggle switch, and the two switches for the split in the pickups. That is also in working condition.
