Being an 80's guy I can't look at one of those without remembering this song/video

Cruella DeVille - Gyspy Girl

I bought that back in 1983?
Never seen the video for it till earlier this month
Loved the guitar playing on it at the time
Had something Queen like about it in a strange kinda way

Tim cant/wont do rewinds or repros of those pickups - you would have to go to Kent Armstrong

The two coils are like a P Bass pickup - wired in series but separate and don't cover the same strings.

What price is it up for?

I think there's about £1200 on it. Expensive, I know, and certainly a big step for me, but it does feel pretty damned nice.
