SouthpawGuy Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Most Heritages have the type of pickups installed written on the control cavity cover or on the label inside the f-hole. Well if they are SDs or Lollars that is. For "standard" Schallers I don't know if that applies, you could ask the seller to take the cover off and have a look.

barrymclark Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 Ah, bummer. I heard tale that someone on here might be changing out some cremes on a 90s model for some black rings... but that would be for neck and bridge... and it seems I need two neck pickup rings. Oh well.

Besides that I know that Bill Lawrence was inwolved. Bombassa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bombassa Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 That's what I was told when I bought the guitar. I bought it from the Heritage importer, a friend of mine. I'm not sure wether Bill Lawrence worked for Heritage or Schaller. Rumors said that something went wrong with that coorporation, and that BL. afterwards claimed to have constructed a shit pup for them. Not everyone believe this. ;D Bombassa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone believe this. ;D Bombassa The Bill Lawrence story is pretty complicated ! Looks like his real name was Willi Lorenz Stich who partnered with Jzchak Wajcman to form Lawrence Electro-sound in Germany in the '60s. http://www.billlawrencereview.com/Jzchak_EZ_Wajcman Bill Lawrence then moved to New York and here's an interesting quote : "Among Bill's apprentices in those days were Dan Armstrong's teenaged son, Kent, and a local kid named Larry DiMarzio." Bill Lawrence worked for Gibson in the 70's, in Nashville. This page has a bio and links to some interesting articles : http://www.billlawrence.com/Pages/BillLawrence/Biography.htm The commercial name "Bill Lawrence" is now owned by Jzchak Wajcman : http://www.billlawrenceusa.com/ Real Bill Lawrence pickups are sold under the names "Wilde" and "Keystone" : http://www.billlawrence.com/Pages/Pickup_W...ntroduction.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
