PaulThePlug Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Hate the whole 'Hack' thing... How many times has the 'spring gone ping' and stuck to the magnet on the underside... so here is a P Bass Pickup Fitting Tip... works equally well for J and other pups... I added a foam off cut to the body, as the foam on the back of the pickups was not thick enough to hold the bobbins in the covers... the pickups were too low and the springs were also getting fully compressed... Cocktail sticks in the screw holes... Springs on... then pups over the cocktail sticks... you can get a pointy thing in there to sort the wiring run. Remove one stick at a time and replace with adjustment screw... Use a sandwich bag between screwdriver tip and screw head to protect finish. I like a fairly compressed spring as it makes the pup a stronger anchor, lightly compressed springs, and/or soft or lightly compressed foam allow a lot of movement... pushing in.
