We really need the updated specs on the site, especially for the neck models.  :wink:


I know! We're gonna hack into the site, and update it ourselves :D:D:D:D:D:D

Who's with me? :D
I wish women were like pickups - if they lack output, you sell them... or ask Tim to rewind them :D

but the Crawler is almost the same as the Abraxas?..

or what is the main difference?


I'm telling you: I heard they are THE SAME, just with a different name... lok here and search for Philly Qs post

Clear it that they're the same with Tim first though (HTH said they are a few hundred ohms apart in another thread, and he knows his stuff, but its good to be certain)

That comment by HTH was a comparison between the Crawler and Mule neck pickups, in this thread:

"are you aware that the Crawler neck pickup is just a Mule wound a tiny bit hotter? (only 400ohms Tim told me)."

Ignoring what I said, here's a quote from an older thread.  See Carlaz's post at the top of the second page:

"turns out the Abraxas and Crawler use the same neck, DC7.6K Alnico IV (Tims says)."

That was an old thread, so as I said before the specs may have changed.  We really need the updated specs on the site, especially for the neck models.  :wink:


Ahhhhhhh! Thanks for clearing that up, phil, youre exceedingly right!

I'm interested to see what Tim says now...

My quote from Tim saying the Abraxas/Crawler neck pups are the same is from an email from him to me on 07 January 2006.  So, things might have changed since -- but it was true then, at least! :)

The site has been due for an upgrade with more info for some years now, no? ;)
