BillLawrenceReview.com was built for those who want more information on "Bill Lawrence" L-500 pickups, specifically, to help identify and differentiate between pickups built by the company and/or those designed by the man.  I'll will also be looking at pickups made between 1975 and 1984 at/by Lawrence Sound Research, which may still be made by either Bill Lawrence Products/Bill Lawrence USA or by designer Bill Lawrence.

Currently, both entities have strong disclaimers to let their customers know who is who, but this has not always been the case. You may want to educate yourself before making a purchase, or you may want to identify pickups you already own. Hopefully, the information on this site will help you identify the manufacturer(did you know there was more than one?) and age of any L-500 electric guitar pickup in question. I recommend heading over to the Glossary page to familiarize yourself with all characteristics of, and people behind, the L-500 that will be used throughout this site. Please feel free to contact me with information or feedback regarding this site. Enjoy!! Scott
