E-66 substitute?
I wanted to replace one of my pick ups with an E-66 but I can’t find one in good shape on the used market. Can anyone suggest a suitable substitute?
Thank you
Thank you

BL 710 maybe? or check with Scott @ Steeltronics to see what he recommends as a similar replacement...maybe this one?

Thanks Jerry the lead time on the steelttonics GL pick ups is 4 weeks. I was hoping to find something sooner.

Jim Palenscar, at Steel Guitars of North County, has two E-66s shown in his inventory, one new and one used.

Check with Nick Fryer. He is doing great work with humbuckers for steel these days.

Not in this section, but in the classifieds
2 pedal steels, a lapStrat, and an 8-string Dobro (and 3 ukes)
More amps than guitars, and not many effects

BL 705,, There is not a better pickup anywhere for pedal steel in my opinion
I'm over the hill and hittin'rocks on the way down!
