SD Blackout pup pots dont fit....aaaarrrrr!

[memphiskat]

I'm trying to install my new Seyour Duncan Blackout set in my Jackson SLSMG and the threaded portion of the supplied pots are too wide to fit into the holes in the guitar. I am replacing EMG-HZ's. Does anyone know if I order EMG 25k pots will they'll fit? I don't want to widen the whole and risk cracking the finish. Has anyone replace the EMG-HZ's that used to come with SLSMGs with active EMGs and used the pots supplied by EMG? This sucks

Go to a Lowes hardware store and buy a reamer.Its a small hand held tool that will make the hole larger.You ream the hole from the inside side so you won't chip the finish if you are careful.Its real easy to use just go slow until the pot fits the hole.
