"Comments: I want to clarify the authenticity of this pickup. Contrary to what some people believe, and have written below, there has always been only one company that produces Bill Lawrence pickups. The company can be found on the net at www.billlawrenceusa.com. The man in Bethlehem, PA who calls himself Bill Lawrence, and claims to be making Bill Lawrence pickups, is actually Willi Stich, a performer, pickup designer and ex-partner of the Bill Lawrence company. The Bill Lawrence company was founded in 1965 by Willi Stich and his partner, E.Z. Wajcman, and it was Mr. Wajcman who came up with the trade name "Bill Lawrence". In 1984 Mr. Stich and Mr. Wajcman parted ways and Mr. Wajcman became the sole owner of the company and the Bill Lawrence name. Mr. Wajcman has continued to produce the same pickups, on the same machines and with the same materials, right here is the U.S.A. Willi Stich has been misrepresenting himself as "Bill Lawrence" in order to market his own pickups. Mr. Stich makes very good pickups, but it's a shame that he is confusing customers by using the name of another company to market them. Mr. Stich really needs to go by his own name and find a new business name. Prior to co-founding the Bill Lawrence company, Mr. Stich performed as "Billy Lorento", a trade name that was owned by the Framus guitar company for which he designed the "Billy Lorento Model" guitar. Just as he stopped using the Billy Lorento name after he co-founded the Bill Lawrence company, Willi Stich should stop using the Bill Lawrence name now that he has a new company."

Mitä helvettiä?
Kaksi eri Bill Lawrencea!?
Tämä firma näyttää enemmän professionaalilta minun silmääni. Ja hehkuttaa tietysti olevansa se aito ja originaali Dimebag valmistaja.
