Replacement Pickups for Sho-Bud

Justin Douglas · Post by **Justin Douglas** » 6 Mar 2005 1:52 pm

hi everyone,

i've got an old sho-bud professional d-10, mid 70s i think, that's just aching for some new pickups (the stock pickups are so microphonic i can talk into them and hear it loud and clear through my amp). i can't seem to find any info on replacement pickups that will fit right into a sho-bud without any adapters or mess.
ideally i'd love some used george l's - i'd like to get a little closer to that fuller emmons p/p sound than my “tinny” sho-bud sound.

any suggestions?

thanks!

How about a rewind by Jerry Wallace.He can make em sound like just about anything youd' like or ,he has his own line of pickups that are TOP NOTCH!

thanks larry - for $35 sounds like the rewind can't be beat!
has anyone had any experience with his rewound pickups? if so, could you elaborate a bit for me?
thanks!

Ditto to the above. I had my ShoBud pickups rewound by Jerry and they are great!

Add me to the list of satisfied Sho~Bud rewind customers. Mine sounds fat and his turnaround time can't be beat! Definitely go for it. You won't be sorry.

BTW,
Let me add that Jerry rewound my pickups on my 73 ProII and I could not have done any better anywhere at any price!
