Anyone knows the output-value (k) the Benedetti humbuckers had, those that were used in Arpege guitars in the 80's?

In what years exactly did Vigier make the Arpege I, Arpege II and the Arpege III?And when did they stop using the full carbon fibre necks and started using the 10/90-system instead? 

<t><br/> Yeah I see it now, the Arpeges and the Passions have a slightly different body-shape and different electronics/pots right?I&apos;m pretty certain mine is an Arpege II, here is another link, an Arpege: http://www.guitariste.com/produit/annonce,vigier,vigier,vigier-arpege,12030,1676.htmlGood ...

Yes It has a carbon fibre neck, but I thought all carbon fibre necks were 10/90?These guitars are hard to find so I feel pretty lucky to own one. I wish they still ...

<t><br/> Hi!I was wondering, is it possible to order parts for my old Vigier Arpege guitar? (had it for 10 years now, 1986-model. Is it version 1?)My plastic backplates are cracked and one of the holders(I think it&apos;s called?) that holds the saddle has a crack in it. Is it possible to order ...
