I remain hopeful.

As forn the ebay seller, I bought a super-weird Italian pickup from him even though I have no use for it just because it looks so cool. (LOL) He's a real pro and a great communicator.
I'll get some pix of everything up as soon as is practical. I'm kind of a Luddite.

I have to wonder whether the Conrad bridge is going to be the same as the Tone Pros bridge in width. I guess the Matsumoku stuff doesn't suffer from the thin neck issue quite as much as the Teico/Kent/Kay Japanese guitars (true?) but I'd check before buying a replacement bridge for a US guitar and expect it to be the correct width for a Japanese neck.

The bridges are hit or miss... but as long as you're springing for Sperzels, you may as well get a nice roller bridge or TOM. I'm a HUGE fan of Tone Pros bridges, personally.

He usually keeps a stock of oddball pickups listed. (I myself have nabbed a number of parts from him in the past.)

This picture is out of a Conrad catalog in the VintAxe collection. Couldn't find your model in any of the Conrad catalogs.

What are the chances?? Now I've got squat. These are not your usual Teisco single coils: I've never seen anything like them, and I need two of them. (sigh) . They're sort of like chrome p-90s, with 4 mounting screws (2 north, 2 south). I saw a Conrad/Arai on this site that's a lot like mine only it has 4 of these pickups. (Lucky dog!). I have JPEGS but am not sure how to implement them. ANYWAY, I'd love to score a pair of these so I can make an honest guitar of my Conrad. (I am NOT going to rout it for DiMarzios!) As they say on "Monty Python and teh Holy Grail," any help you could give would be most...helpful!Thanks!
