I found a Side Jack at a good price... do any of the nice replacement pickups currently in production (Elliot, Hallmark, etc.) fit in this guitar without significant surgery?

Thanks!

Thanks Raygun... I saw those, but their website says that they have suspended production! That would be the perfect solution, though.

Bob

The website's just out of date. I know the guy who makes them.
Email me at guitars@m3california.com if you're interested.

Cool! I saw your Ebay clip when I started the search, but I didn't know that you were still making them. Awesome!

Now I just have to close the deal on the Eastwood...

RayGuns' pickups are great - I've got them in the MeshuggaRite. If you get them I highly recommend the split coil dual output version. Very versatile.

Here's a demo I did of mine, the sound quality (and the playing) aren't great, but you get the idea:

This is interesting. I have a Sidejack that I was thinking of putting Jazzmaster pickups in, but this sounds like a better and easier alternative. And while we're at it...would a Shade vibrato work on a Sidejack? The stock Burns vibrato is the worst!

Is the Burns vibrato a top mount or is the body routed out like on the Jazzmaster vibrato? If it's top mount the Hallmark 'Shade' should work fine. They are great vibrato's. You might have some extra exposed screw holes but it would be worth the trade off to get a good usable vibrato.

Yes, we do have plans to resurrect the Moseley style humbuckers. Only thing is...we've got so many irons in the fire with orders for the RH-100's and other parts its just difficult to work them into the agenda when we don't have any orders for them. I suppose if someone ordered some from us we'd start making them more regularly. But we've only had one inquiry in the past two years and we never heard back after quoting the price. We do want to bring them back someday, though.
