garbev Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Hi All, Could anyone recommend a good(and cheap) rewind service please. The Tesla bridge pickup in my Jazz has died, without any problems in the past. It's reading open on a meter and the tech who checked it told me there must be a break in the coil. It's a great sounding p/up but obviously I don't want to spend as much as a replacement would cost, around £45 from Ebay. Cheers, Gary. Quote
Mr. Foxen Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 This guy does pickup rewinds: http://www.edgeguitarservices.co.uk/ Quote
tommorichards Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 the guys at wizard do them. I think its about £30. [url="http://www.wizardpickups.co.uk/content.asp?cpage=Repairs"]http://www.wizardpickups.co.uk/content.asp?cpage=Repairs[/url] Quote
BILL POSTERS Posted September 9, 2012 Posted September 9, 2012 Never had a Tesla apart but. Coils that are not carrying current usually break at one end or the other. So might it be worth dismantling it to see if you can unwind a bit and re connect it ? Quote
garbev Posted September 9, 2012 Author Posted September 9, 2012 Thanks for all the help. Cheers Mr Foxen, I'll get hold of Eltham, Bridgend is only down the road from me. Ta, Gary. Quote
gelfin Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 May be a bit late on this but if you are near Bridgend then you may also be near this guy in Cardiff. [url="http://www.shedpickups.com/"]http://www.shedpickups.com/[/url] He seems to be able to make / wind any pick up you want. Quote
Monckyman Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Andy at Wizard quoted £40 for rewinding a thumper that I stuck a screwdriver into. (I know..) Quote
