Lindy Fralin has been a pioneer and innovator in the Guitar and Bass pickup industry for 30 years. His guitar pickups are found in some of the most notable and influential guitarist’s guitars today. Fralin Pickups started as a humble, one-man shop in the historic Fan District in Richmond, Virginia. Passionate about guitars and tone, Lindy began repairing broken pickups from local music stores. Lindy started rewinding them with a winder built from a sewing machine motor and pedal. After some local musicians listened and heard Lindy’s pickups, Lindy quickly realized that he was on to something. Growing his rewind business, Lindy got his hands on some of the most sought after pickups available. He received countless pickups from all eras, and his passion for music pushed him to examine all the details of these vintage pickups and determine their “magic.”
