  1. Does any one know of such a company that does this? I been on sites that show shapes but none that have come close to what im looking for..... specially Uk they have hardly any.

    I'm looking for a design that i have in mind and hoping to ask them to cut it for me but i cannot find a site that exists that does such a thing.. does any one know of a site that does OR has a large selection to choose from which may mean I won't have to go for my design if i find something I like...

    Let me know thankyou.

  2. I have a few questions to ask about winding pickups.

    Firstly is copper wire the only choice? Or can you use others... what effects does the material do to the tone?

    Also how many winds do single coil pickups in strats use?

    And what tone types do you get from different thickness of the wire?

    And lastly... how do you "alter" pickup tones to fine tune the sound your looking for ? Say i wanted a thick blues tone like SRV for example... what factors play a role in fine tuning a pickup in such a way?

    Reason i ask is im going to make my very first pickup out of plastic sheeting i got and i got the magnets, and this site i found has hundreds of types of copper wire and thickness so i thought Id ask first before buying. Cos is copper the best one or is there better?

    Hope you guys can help :D thanks again.
