I thought this was going to be about repairing pickups, as suggested by the word refurb.
Turns out this article is more about building pickups from scratch, which altough cool, was a little bit abridged.

that was kinda cool. I'd like to see more about the general refurb of this guitar though.

I liked it, thanks for posting
