Re: Update with Pic! Pickup Mounting Ring replacements ??

dave... I got the ring!... very nice job!... much better than the original!...

the sad part of the story is that I installed the ring on the charvel and she looked so pretty for like 2 seconds!.. perfect, not even a flaw anywhere!.. right after that, I dropped it by accident and she got a nasty chip on the bottom.. I am sooo upset!... [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Anyway, thumbs up!... nice job.

A++++ seller, highly recommended.

Are the 2 rings different sizes like a les paul or are they the same size with the same tapers?
Thanks,

Sorry to hear that, Rodrigo! I think we all know the feeling. Every time i make a ding in a guitar by accident, i always blame myself: -You f! retard, you knew this was going to happen!

Anyways, when your mood gets better why not post pics of that ring-mod? I'm a pic'oholic!

The chip is close to the bottom strap button on the back side... 4 inches up... not too nice, not too bad... the silver sparkle finish IS (or was)beautiful and it is HARD to fix... I am still curling up in a corner crying over that...I hate me.. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

I will post pictures of the ring later... I just dont have a camera right here...
