I apologize, in advance, if I'm in the wrong section with this question. Does anyone know if there is a way to do coil splits on a George "L" pickup? Thanks for any assistance or replies.

I have several, and they're all 2-conductor + shield, so can't be split, that requires at least 3 conductors. They're also potted with epoxy so there's no opening them up. George L did make a 10-5 and a 12-5 for a while that was made to split, there are some threads about those here on the forum. Here's a 12-5 with the instruction sheet: https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=393208
Steeltronics is making their own version of George L's now, they might be able to advise if they can make you one that can be split.

Thanks so much. I appreciate the info. Reason I was asking, I've been noticing that mine is beginning to sound kinda muddy of late. It sounds just fine playing solo but when I get to jamming, with a group or in church, then the problems can start. I guess, I will do some more experimenting with an equalizer to see if I can tune that muddiness out. Thanks again.

| Just a thought you could try lowering the pickup to see if that cleans the sound a little. |
