Just a couple of questions on the subject.

Is it possible to make your own pickups at home?

Is it possible to take 2 single coils from a strat and stick them together?

Is it possible to get 2 SD Hot rails pickups, slap them together and great an Úber double humbucker? :D

it might be possible to stick the single coils together......but i dont know why you would want to do that, because it proably wouldn't work, cuz i dont think that a strat humbucker is two single coils together,its more complicated.though im not sure

I suggest reading the info about pickups on the StewMac site (under free info) and have another think.

I guess it's possible but the results might not be predictable.
