    Interested. PM me with address and payment details.

    Cream cover and N or B position not a problem. Just need to know output cable length.

    I googled that Dimarzio you have up there and this thread was the third hit on Google. Unbelievable.

    Do you have any interesting, decent quality, neck position Strat single coils you want to unload?

    I assume you weren't interested in any of the junk I sent you a PM about? Obviously no worries if you weren't. Just curious.
    Every love that made me lose my reasoning. Every chord that made my conscience ache. Every day spent counting hours. Well, none of them comes close to singing back a song inside my head.

    I remember calloused hands and paint-stained jeans, and I remember safe-as-houses self-belief.

    UK availability of the DiMarzio Will Power HB seems to come and go in waves.

    The only other Strat pickups I have are three Fender Am STD single coils. Any good?

    Can't remember what was on your PM clear out list. Wiped majority of PMs at start of this year. Sorry.

    Lemme check out some stuff about the Strat pup and get back to you. I'm not really desperate to replace the one I have, I've just been getting curious about what more I could squeeze out of that position on my Pacifica. What kind of price would you be looking for? Would you even sell a single pickup or would you rather hold off and sell as a set?

    I'll tell you what I have that might suit your Pacifica, sir.

    I have a neck/centre pair of Ibanez single coils from an SAS36FM. These measure 6.75kOhms and have alnico rod magnet polepieces that are spaced to align properly with the strings. The screw holes at either end of each vulcanised fibreboard bobbin are meant for a small direct mounting wood screw. These will require widening to accept a typical "Fender" height adjustment screw.

    280mm cable on each pickup (both conductors). Black plastic covers. The polepiece spacing issue means that you have no choice but to use these. The centre position PU is RP/RW.

    I have no expectations of ever using these pickups again. A nominal sum to cover postage and packing would be enough.

    The Fender CIJ Jaguar pickups are exactly the same as the pickups that used to go in Fender MIJ vintage re-issue Stratocasters except for three things;
    1) The polepiece magnets are of equal height rather than staggered
    2) The output conductors are at one end of the bobbin rather than on a lip along one edge of the lower fibreboard plate.
    3) The screw holes in the ends of the bobbin are intended to allow a wood screw to pass directly through. For use with a typical Fender height adjustment screw, a thread would need to be cut in the fibreboard.

    IMO, the CIJ Jag PUs would be interesting for experimentation. From this, you can probably guess that I do not rate them. Obviously, they are better than some godawful steel studs 'n' underslung ceramic magnet types. I do not imagine that the Jag PUs will be any better than your Wilkinson units.

    Surely, one person can only PM half of a conversation?

    Well. No further business has materialised for a week. Time to close Trunk #1.
