Master and legend. MJ has probably written down or forgotten more about pickups than many winders will ever learn. There are few people who have touched the tools of so many musicians and songs, from the most accomplished and famous to little hobbyists like me. And what a golden personality!

I had several phone calls with M.J. around 20 years ago. I wanted her to wind me vintage spec PAF type pickups with aged Alnico II magnets. M.J. recommended about 10% underwound on the neck position and 10% overwound at the bridge. One set was open coil zebra for my '95 Hamer Studio Archtop and the other set aged nickle for my USA Washburn P-3. Both sets really brought out the character and nuances of each guitar. M.J. was always so funny and charming on the phone, and never made me feel rushed. I might have to have her wind me a new set for my new Les Paul Standard. I'm sure M.J. will again have plenty of cool ideas.

I lucked into a cream "MJ" JB about 10 yrs ago, new in the original box. Unfortunately at the time I didn't appreciate what I had and thought I'd make a few bucks with it on ebay. Sat for a week at $100 no takers. Dropped it to $80, another week nothing. Finally someone offered me 70 and I jumped at it. I look back now and just sigh at the whole affair.
