Fantastic!  Happy to see this story.

OMG :o
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

The single coil never made it to the first EB-0’s. The ‘58 & early ‘59 EB-2’s had the massive single coil pickup, then the coil was split in two to make the first mudbuckers. The pole pieces were moved from the outer edge to the center of the pickup but the cover was still bakelight.

Thanks - totally misremembered that.
