Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

Wire quality does make a difference to the sound, and ASL was always intended to be a no compromises line.

Genuine question, hope I'm not being silly!
Bare Knuckle for example use PE in all their 'classic' humbuckers ... and poly in their high output units.

I'm interested because I discovered that the two Duncan humbuckers that I've liked the most - the Jazz and the Alnico II Pro - are supposedly pretty similar except for the obvious magnet difference. They both (if what I've read on the Seymour Duncan forums is correct and I believe it was stated by somebody working at SD) use more modern poly-coated wire rather than the PAF-style enamel coated wire.
So what does poly do to the sound?

A batch of ASL Blackbird pickups arived this morning - one set is to replace the ones from my own B6 that (Blackmachine founder) Doug "borrowed" and another set will go into a Feline Lion to be tested in that style of guitar.
The others are ready to be fitted in B6s and sent out to eager customers.
I've ordered up another batch.
I think Ash is going to photo the build process and feature it on here or I'll put it up on on the Feline website.

Really hope the line is a big success for the both of you - the pickups speak for themselves!
Oops, typo on the packaging!
I thought they said Blancmange Blackbird for a minute....

Production is continuing with yet more ASL Blackmachine Blackbirds (including a black set) ... and I will produce a photo series detailing the build of these. As you can see Doug and Jonathan are keeping me busy!
I must find time to put a set of Blackbirds in one of my own gigging instruments :-)

Nice to see you're thinking of the future vintage market.
"blackmachine blacmachine pickups, pre-typo correction, original London handwound vintage pickups, like signed abby ybara but British".
