    Best Ever Pick Up Repair Experience!! 1968 Telecaster bridge pickup. Dead in 1976. Lot of gigs. Finally sent the pickup to Lindy, in 2025. Every step was totally professional. Lindy called me before the coil was wound. How do you want the pick-up? Told him 6.8K or Close. Lindy walked me through the steps, and agreed.
    Lindy Fralin, and his Wife and empoyees are TOP NOTCH!!

    Fralin et al are always the best! Had a ‘66 Tele bridge pup repaired, and it’s perfect ! Of course it’s the personal touch that makes Fralin rock. thank you Jon and Lindy !

  8. Bucky Gelo

    I got what I believe is a very early electric lap steel. The pickup output was very weak so I mailed it off to Lindy.
    He called me a few days later and informed me that the pickup I sent was from a Japanese Jazz Bass and was useless.
    He asked for dimensions and proceeded to build me a pickup that would fit inside the original pickup cover.
    His work was flawless. He phoned me several times to inform me of progress.
    I had previously bought his Telecaster pickups, I knew how he strived for perfection.
    I highly recommend his products and will buy from him in the future.
    I am a professional player and tech.

  9. Rick LaFevet

    Great service once again, as always. Thanks Lindy!

  10. Victor Litz Music

    Thank you so much for the work you have done for us and your honesty about what was good and what was not working

  11. Franklin

    Outstanding service and communication, including a personal call from Mr Fralin himself to ask specific questions about my order and options.
    Pickup sounds phenomenal and has given new life to my bass!

  12. Ben Gates

    Lindy fixed a 1964 Strat pickup in a couple weeks and saved a $1000 pickup for only $40! Thank you so much Lindy!

  13. Arthur Castonguay

    Verified Purchase

    Inherited an older bass that had no output. Sent pups down to Lindy to see what was what. I was surprised to get a phone call while he was working with them on the bench to discuss his findings and decide on a way forward. Talk about personal service.

    This shop is highly recommended. All interactions were professional and the turn around time was amazing even with an international border and a postal strike in the mix.

    They have my future business for life.
