Hey gang!
It has been a while since I have posted anything about our hand crafted pickups. We just made a set of Ventures II pickups for a customer that wanted the exact materials that were used in making the originals in 1965. This requires the vintage breakaway bar magnets that Mosrite used in the 60's and 70's. I have a quantity of these magnets that cannot be found anymore. I purchased the remainder of the stock that Mosrite's supplier had years ago, and they said they would not be making more of them.
Here is a look at a few steps of the build up. Enjoy,
Ready to rock!
Thanks for checking in, Bob Shade

Very cool! Thanks for posting Bob! Pics are fine on my end too.
Have you ever thought of a career in hand modeling?
Sorry was watching Seinfeld reruns.

Oh I see them now. Must have been an internet hiccup.
Marky, ok you talked me into it, I will quit guitar building now and focus on my hand modeling career
Perhaps D'Andrea would like me to hold a pick for a photo. The possibilities are endless.
Or maybe I will just keep that on the back burner.
Cheers, Bob
