Title: Custom Orders?
Post by: wixomwhat on June 13, 2005, 09:58:41 PM
Hey guys,

Is it possible to order any Humbucker (In my case the Holy Diver) with 12 screw poles instead of 6 screw poles and 6 slugs?

If it's possible how would I actually go about ordering the pick that way?

Give Tim a PM, a mail or a phone call.

Order it online and put 'twin screw coils' in the special instruction box, I'll do the rest! :D

im thinking about ordering a calibrated set of VHII's some time in the near future for my custom built strat from hell, would i be able to put in the special instructions box a request for 'alnico 2 magnets and an according wind adjust' for the same price?

I think I had a VH2 with alnico 2 at one point, and a ceramic VH2. Neither sounded as good as the current production VH2.

Whay do you want the Alnico 2? :?:

You could, but trust me, I spent months working on the wind of the VHII-Alnico II really doesn't cut it at all with this design.

The Duncan's in my Strat are Alnico 2, and trust me, even though they are single coils, mass made, they sound gash.

Go with what Tim says, he is the boss and a professional.

Andy!
