In the late 80s a lot of my ritz's came with Schaller pick ups. These things were amazing. Mab's rocket and I think quad came with schaller pick ups too. I heard Kramer used them too.. anyone had experience with them? Can you.find the schallers on mab's ritz's anywhere?

Michael schenker made a blind test on ona flyng V tryng different pu's of many famous brands and the schaller ones sounded the best. :wink:

I remember reading this in a guitar rag. He had a quick-change hole routed in one of his guitars so he could test pickups.
