Good pickups for a semi-hollow body?

[sjaguar13]

I need pickups for my 1963 semi-hollow body. Something for blues or jazz. Any recommendations?

I recommend Steven Kersting of SK Guitar Specialties. He mad e the P-90 set I put in my Tele. Very good pickups and a great price. And he winds them to what you want in terms of output, tone, etc.

I'll have to check out Steven Kersting. Custom wound pickups seem like a good idea. Think I should get silver, gold, or black pickups? I have some silver pickup covers, and found some gold ones cheap on eBay. I want to stay with the vintage look.

Also look at Bill Lawrence (www.billlawrence.com); he makes some nice P-90-ish pup's, in a close replica (tonally speaking) or a cleaned up version. Several other single and hummer's to choose from - all free of single-coil noise.

Hope this helps...
