[model1]

hi guys
do you know what´s the difference between the 2 pickup models?
they´re both rails, four conductor and look the same
so what about sound, both high gain [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
btw i saw a 900 XL, that reads "made in germany" [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]
i thought they were usa pickups?
thanks

hey guys i´ve got an idea
maybe it´s in the blade length?
on the 900XL the blades are exactly 60mm long
can someone measure a 500XL for me?
have a nice weekend

I don't know, but check out Bill Lawrence's website and maybe email them. There were some imposter BL pups that Stew-Mac used to sell (I think it was one of Bill's old partners), and Jackson used those cheaper ones in some of their models years ago. http://www.billlawrence.com/
