Zenitram Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Has anyone else with a Sue Ryder P bass experienced this? I bought a body and neck off someone here, and got round yesterday to putting in the pickups, a Seymour Duncan SPB-1, so I put in a bit of stiff foam (of the kind designed for this sort of thing), and then the pickups. I screw them in, get the pickguard on and everything good, and it turns out the pickups are at the same level as the pickguard. They don't rise up above it. It's very odd. I can't unscrew them any further or they'll come out. The screws are a standard enough length (two inches, maybe?). There seem to be two solutions: 1. Buy longer screws and put more stuff underneath the pickups. 2. Glue some wood into the pickup cavity and screw the existing screws into that. Can anyone think of good reasons not to do one or the other, or does anyone have any other suggestions? The bass and the pickups work fine, but it just looks weird. And the pickups are a fairly long way from the strings, so it could all be a bit oomphier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
