Members V Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 Yeah I'd say put some wrhbs with magnetic poles in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lou Speed's Alt Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 Are the WRHBs the same ones Fender have been using for the last decade or so? I had a 2006 Tele Deluxe that had them but I thought I read something that said they had changed them at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gambit Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 i think Curtis Novak mentioned on the offsetguitars forum that they aren't the same as previous wrhb's construction-wise. here we go:" Have had a little time to look at it and rework the pickups...They are a new version, they are made by G&B Pickups. Same basic guts of all the other reissues. Heavily waxed with black foam instead of the white cotton.Same bar magnet, and steel screwsThe cover is a little different material but same basic shape. curtis" then he gave it to Lee Renaldohttp://offsetguitars.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=76153&start=15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members V Posted December 20, 2013 Members Share Posted December 20, 2013 I tried the Novak ones and thought they were kind of dark for my tastes. I'd try the Lollars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
