Post  Steve777 on Sat Dec 06, 2008 11:52 pm

Well, we've all know about MMK 45's , 75's etc . So, has anybody got in their spares box, an AL 76. Its fitted with a block connector (original).

Cheers Steve

Hi John,

Apologies ... overlooked your post. John ( Cranbone) and I have been swapping info about his Genesis II ( now sold) and we have put together a complete wiring diagram that I intend to post through David on the Westone website. Loads of useful cavity photo's as well.

John took some ohms readings that concur with mine for the single coils and also checked the "humbucker" that I dont have. Firstly it is marked on the base AL 76 but no MMK stamp. Hence the request for an AL 76.

Secondly, as discussed before, I could bang anything there ( SD, Dimarzio etc) but dont want swamp the single coils, The Ohms resistance of the HB comes out at 7.05 which is on a par with the singles.

However, rocking horse droppings comes to mind if I want to find one, unless you have one in your tool box. I could make one using two single coils from alternative sources or another way would be use a MMK 61 ( 8.4ohm, alnico 5) and this seems the easiest way.

So, has anybody got a MMK 61 they wouldnt mind loosing?

All the best

Steve

Ahh! Toddle on over to Matt and Electra as well and see if any of the gurus over there can help.... I don't have a 61 spare, just a 45 and a 75 which is earmarked for my 2nd Clipper... sorry! Smile
