What to Expect: You will spend two days with our instructors who will guide you through winding and wiring concepts, construction of finished pickups, and the use of our industry-favorite Mojotone Pickup Coil Winding Machine. You will be winding by hand, soldering, wax-potting and actually assembling working pickups. Hosted and led by MojoTone’s Pickup Designer and Guitar Production Manager, Nick Eldred, this two-day program will take you through the builds of three different types of pickups, including humbucker, Tele and Strat style pickups. You will be guided through the build process, learn how to use your new Mojotone Pickup Coil Winding Machine, learn to hand-guide wire onto coils in different patterns, learn the concepts and designs behind the most popular pickup types on the market, and learn the steps to finish a pickup that is ready to wire into an instrument. Instructors are on hand to quickly address any questions and to help troubleshoot issues if you run into a problem. By the end of the two-day workshop, you will have built several of your very own pickups to enjoy for years to come and have a better understanding of the components and differences between all types of pickups.
