- Dearmond Toaster Pickup With Controls In Seatle Wa For $95
These Toaster pickups are the same as the DeArmond Hershey Bars - I have been playing one on my H44 for the last week and it is to die for. I'd say that that 7.62K output is about as perfect as you can find for sweet vintage tone. *****************...

DeArmond M55
guitarz.blogspot.com
Strangely it is difficult to find information about this DeArmond M55 - though it's an internet era guitar released in the 2000s! Even though it's been discontinued and DeArmond don't produce guitars anymore, Fender (who owns the DeArmond brand) could have kept a website about these guitars!
Anyway, the design of this guitar is based on a Guild model - DeArmond were just making the pickups and sign - and as you can notice, the original humbucker has been replaced by a Filtertron copy. I like the absence of stoptail and the turn-o-matic / string-through-body combination, it always feels to me that it's the best way to transmit the strings vibration to the body.
