Hello,

A few months ago Tommy Cass worked on my Emmons D-10, among other things re-installing the stock single coil pickups. We tested the E9 pickup, which gave us a reading of 14 K, quite a bit lower than the C6 pickup. After taking the steel on a few gigs and sessions I think I need a higher output pickup on the front neck, and was wondering if anybody rewinds old Emmons pickups or might have one reading at about 16-18 K that I could buy. Thanks for letting me know.

Best,

Gerald

p.s. Tommy does fantastic work and is a really great guy. He put a lot more time than we bargained for into my steel, and really made it play and sound great.

Gerald,

Jerry Wallace (True Tone Pickups) does great work! He can rewind your Emmons pickup for $40 plus shipping.

When Mike Cass worked on my guitar he had the Emmons company rewind the pickups...
