This one was fun.
I responded to a local help-wanted post, where the owner of a really slick 60’s era Guyatone bass has a dead humbucker and wanted it working again for his grandson.
Instead of installing some other pickup, I managed to re-wind it and made it a little hotter in the process. I also wax-potted it, did the install and set it up.
Here’s to the next generation of bassists … and to saving vintage instruments!
Check out an instagram reel showing how the rewind was done and how the pickup sounds:
