Re-wax Potting Pickups (East Sussex)

I have a friend who is looking to get some TV Jones pickups re-potted as they have become 'microphonic', in his words.  Anyone know of a local (to East Sussex) tech able to sort this?

    Depending where you are in East Sussex, a quick trip up the A28 towards Ashford in Kent will find you at Arron Armstrong's son of Kent Armstrong. He potted two sets for me recently for £20 I think it was. While you are there you can pop in To WD Music next door for some parts or go over to Sims Guitars, purveyors of basses and bass pickup systems, all within 20) metres of each other. I can tell you my Les Paul deluxe pickups had stopped their microphonic feedback last Saturday as I was shaking the guitar in front of my cranked Hiwatt stack getting beautifully controlled, proper feedback! Thanks Arron.

    I can do it if he wants to visit Croydon or mail them in , or Dave Walsh at Eternal Guitars is along the coast in Chichester . Or Ash at Oil City Pickups will do the same.

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