pirateflynn Posted May 12, 2021 Posted May 12, 2021 It’s time for me to start doing my own pickup swaps. I’d appreciate any advice along with a list of all the stuff I’ll need. An excellent iron for this purpose, the right solder, etc. Thanks!

scottcald Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 Just wanted to follow up, I tested out my new Hakko by making a couple of short cables, and man, it's awesome. Thanks for the recommendation Josh and Victor!
hamerican gigolo Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 I bought a Weller WES51 a couple of years ago after yrs. of struggling with a Rat Shack. Great move. Life's too short for a pos soldering iron. 😎
noisy neighbor Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 +1 on Hakko and am using the 63/37 solder that Josh recommends.
