I will presume that the strings are identical on both guitars...Where did you get the pickguards for these?

[danielslaman]

made them out of celluloid tortoisehell............ after all I am a guitar maker

strings are identical on both guitars, flatwound

[barearsed]

I must agree, I don't hear any thing that would distinguish between the pickups. I think that both pair with your guitars quite nicely.

You do lovely work.

[danielslaman]

thanx, appreciate it

[LollarGuitars]

[GreekScramble]

thank you, very helpful

The lollar one has a lil more mids compared to the one made by CC. Very close sounding though..

[wilkinsongrj]

cc is a bit lighter sounding

i like that

[triviani1234]

I if played that way I would not care a bit about the pickups..!

[danielslaman]

you're welcome it was a pleasure

[danielslaman]

the main purpose of the video was to show that the diffrences are very small and marginal, they are both magnificent sounding pickups, nailing the pre-war CC sound

hi buying is easy to build it into your guitar is another cup of tea but a good builder / repairman can do it
