BlackTop Jaguar MOD

Post by bill11hc »

So Right now i have this black blacktop jaguar hh laying around... lets say i really really hate the pickups in this thing... they are incredibly dull. Anyways I want to Install Filtertron Pickups in this bad girl but obviously they arent normal humbucker size. I have regular humbuckers in with normal sized cream rings... id like to find a drop in replacement where i can literally take out these pick ups and drop these in. I will also be installing a bigsby but thats easy enough. PLEASE HELP A BROTHER OUT!!!
IM AM JOB

A few TV Jones pickups are available in a humbucker mount format. Magnatrons would probably be good in a Jag.

GFS Surf 90s are well liked as a "not a mudbucker" option for PAF size mounts - here's a Jagmaster with Surf 90s.

You mean English mounts?
You can do that too... It's all mostly been done somewhere or other.
