Hmm, I think I prefer the one at 14:50. It seems hotter, yes, but also more sensitive. More of a nuanced tone. The hum you commented on may actually be buzz, rather than hum, caused by a lack of shielding. Aren't these built as humbuckers? I'm looking for pickup designs to mount between the two pickups on my Tele, without having to route the body and pickguard. I wonder if these would be able to keep up, output-wise, with my 6.6K neck/7K bridge Tele pickups. I was looking at gold foils when I wandered down this flatpup path. I think either would fit (physically).
Hello Bart, your pickups do sound amazing! I think I'd very much like to try making my own. FYI, I find that your videos are sometimes difficult to see what you're doing though.
@@bartblankenship1314 I definitely appreciate that, Bart. I've built a few CBG's, but I'm always feeling my way through each guitar project -- which is a big part of the fun. The one I'm working on right now will get an MGB flat pickup. We'll see how it sounds. My son is the guitar player in the family. I'm the builder-guy. LOL
i bought a cb gitty flatpup for my last build w/ my camacho (Blk/Chrome) box... i watched your vid on winding a bucker. you was clear in your speaking of the steps , although the vid quality was low graphics & no still shots or zoom -ins... but i just rewind & pause until i understood... thank you for the vid ! im going to be trying to make one in a few days.. wish me luck. 😃

Good luck Mike. And if you have any questions or want to set up a video chat I’m happy to help.
Oh n thanks for the feedback. I do need to have more closeups so viewers can see more clearly what I’m doing.
