Paul Yandell sent me this photo of a new pickup he made for his CGP. If you'll notice, the treble strings have a solid bar underneath, and the basses have adjustable screws. Paul says "It really sounds good I think more like Chet's Fingerstyle album."

Re: Paul Yandell/New CGP pickup
I'm always trying to think of something differant this pickup is mono Chet always said the bars gave him a bigger note it's balanced really well and the treble strings have the slight edge like the pickup on the CG, it's something I have been thinking about building for some time, thanks paul
