BadgerDave Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 I'm looking for a period correct neck pickup for a 1980 Hamer Special restoration project. Anyone have one they are willing to part with?
Jakeboy Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 If not,Josh can wind a spot-on clone with brass frames and everything.
BadgerDave Posted May 16, 2022 Author Posted May 16, 2022 I'm definitely a fan of Josh's work. For this project, I have the period correct DiMarzio double cream bridge pickup and would really like to find a matching zebra neck version with similar aging.
JGravelin Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 They're out there - check Reverb. Thanks all y'all for thinking of me! HFC ♥!! If you absolutely cannot find it, get in touch. Send photos of this aged look and I will emulate it as closely as possible, if I can.
BadgerDave Posted May 18, 2022 Author Posted May 18, 2022 This is what i'm looking for. Unfortunately, it's in Serbia and one of a set listed at $500. I'd like to shake one loose in the $100 - $150 range.

JGravelin Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 I rewound screw coils and fresh output leads on 2 of these just a few weeks ago for a guy. They do show up at reasonable prices with leads cut short and coils dead but one has to be quick with your trigger finger and totally on it for the cheap scores. I'll keep my eyes peeled on your behalf and will get in touch if/when I find one. If it needs help, I got you.
