Does any one have the mounting specs for wide and narrow mount pickups?
I have been winding some Stratosphere ( early Sho Bud) pickups for Sho Buds, Millers, Wrights and other steels. I have some requests for these in standard mount set ups. If any one has the specs along with pickup width and length I'd appreciate it.


Thanks,
Todd

If nobody responds by morning, I've got a widemount Truetone at home and a widemount E66. And I know where my tape measure is. Let me know what measurements you need, in case I overlook a parameter that matters

Hey Todd. Scroll down to page 17 and you will find technical drawings of the Telonics pickups. I cannot say for sure that they conform to general standards so you will need confirmation of this from someone else.

Let me know if that misses any measurements you need, Todd

Thanks Jon, That helps.

Lane, if you would not mind just measuring the outside width and length of the pickup itself ( not the base plate) that would help. Thank you,


Todd

I can't find my E66, my Truetone top plate measures 1â…œX4â…›, and the wound bit is smaller by around a quarter inch in each dimension.

Thank you Lane.

Tom, I'll get to work on that. I've had some good reviews and a few sound files from customers I could share on email.
