Precision Thunderbird assembly

Alanko:
Like my last experiment with a Gibson T-bird pickup, this one is also microphonic and susceptible to interference. The two things an epoxy-sealed humbucker should not be!

The neck-side coil appears to be the microphonic one. I had the pickup screaming on me with the bass through mild distortion.

Same here!

Pilgrim:
That's a very nice looking instrument!

Funny, with the dark pickup cover and the lighting, I had to look three times before spotting where the pickup was located.

  That looks great! I've been thinking about putting a Epiphone 760 Probucker in a P build for a while now.

That pickup would essentially float or be minimally recessed I imagine?
