    I like how you used the copper foil. Assembly is much cleaner that way.

    I guess “from scratch” means different things to different people. Pickups I have made from scratch were ones that I designed and fabricated the entire pickup including making the spools, winding, and assembly. If you just buy all the parts, you are really just winding and assembling them. After doing this a few times I decided that I really had nothing to offer that I couldn’t buy for a relatively small amount of money and that it was more trouble than it’s worth.

      Yeah, I can understand what you're saying

      He still built the pickup , it's not assembled , thus built .

      @Dad-Gad, I guess people build houses using pre-made bricks

    I've never seen how the pickup is being made, now I feel like completely educated! This is a good one, thanks!

    Really Good video. Pity there is no demo sound with distortion.

    Thanks for the video! I’m currently leaning to make the pickup myself. Your video really helps me a lot. However, I’m still little confused on where wire I should solder to the which copper wire. You said in the video that the wire needs to be soldered in to their designated copper wire. But what exactly are those designed places? For example. For the slug coil. Which color of the wire should solder to the starter copper wire and which color of wire should solder to the finishing copper wire? Thanks a lot!

      Each pickup manufacturer uses different color code for the wires. If you are building your own pickup, just remember which wire goes to which coil start/end and then solder them according to your preferred wire scheme.

    How many winds did you do and was this a neck pickup?

    Amazed watching you create. Any chance the dude playing is named Mike Z.?

    I broke a pickup awhile ago changing the magnet and this looks like the answer to the problem I was having - using copper tape to attach the 4 conductor wire to the bobbin wire. Although I also have another problem - my bobbin is covered in tape goop covering the wiring, is there a way to remove old goop from the coil windings?

    • @coilsboutiquepickups
      @coilsboutiquepickups  2 месяца назад

      Maybe a piece of cloth dipped in some naphtha will do the trick..

  • @joeylizotte7537
    @joeylizotte7537 5 месяцев назад +1

    Hey. I'm really interested in "the Black", but can it be modified, like with double screw bobbins?
    Also, do you make custom pickups?

    • @coilsboutiquepickups
      @coilsboutiquepickups  5 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, the black can be modified in such a manner, and we do make custom pickups

    Designated spots for wires need to be explained.

    • @litemetal
      @litemetal 7 месяцев назад +1

      It looks like he took 1 color of wire to the beginning of his windings and 1 color of wire to the end of his windings. Soldered them to the little copper tape tabs. The soldering connections make them “electricly continuous.” The tape applied at the end, so they don’t short out is “isolating “them. It’s hard to go into a lot of important details in a few words. I’m wondering-where does he get the bobbins and screws …etc. ?

  • @vegard77
    @vegard77 5 месяцев назад +1

    Do you wind both bobbins in the same direction ? CW/CCW Im unsure it that matters

    • @coilsboutiquepickups
      @coilsboutiquepickups  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hi, the bobbins are wound in the same direction but soldered opposite

  • @drew2308
    @drew2308 4 месяца назад

    Do you have to use screws on one side, or could you just use bobbins?

    • @coilsboutiquepickups
      @coilsboutiquepickups  4 месяца назад +1

      I don't think I understand the question.. do you mean is it possible to make a pickup with poles only? If so, yes, it is possible
