Just found out that the bridge pickup in the x230 I just bought on eBay is toast. Wondering if anyone has had any luck tracking down original bridge replacement pickups for these. I'm also considering having it rewound by either Jason Lollar or Curtis Novak. Not sure how much that is going to cost yet, though. Thoughts?

Do you know what the pup was? If it was an MMK 45 they do turn up on evilbay from time to time. A DiMarzio Super Distortion is a good replacment.

It was the stock bridge pickup in the X230. I looked on eBay but didn't find much. I'm sending to Jason Lollar for an evaluation. Hoping he can do a rewind.

Please let us know what he says. I love the bridge pup in my X240.
