Doctor J Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Try Christoph Dolf at bassculture.de. He's not the cheapest but he is very good at what he does. I had him make a pair of rosewood covered humbuckers for a 6 string bass with a non-standard size. They were bang on, based on the sound I told him I wanted. Alternatively, I just got a set of J pickups from Jess Loureiro in Spain - see recent threads in this forum. I'm not sure if he does custom sizes yet but his prices are good and there's no harm in asking him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
