2pc. Electric Guitar Acrylic Pickup Routing Templates - 10 most popular pickups!

Description

This 2-piece set of acrylic laser-cut and engraved templates provide you with 10 separate magnetic pickup routing templates, one for each of our most popular varieties of magnetic p'ups. From the Soapbar P-90 to the Snake Oil Mini Humbucker, standard Strat-style single-coil to the lipstick tube, they are all here.
Simply lay the template on your cigar box (or other instrument build), scribe the opening onto the surface with a sharp pencil, and then route it out and install your pickup - no more guessing or over-cutting! If any final sizing is needed, use a file to do fine-adjustments.
We carefully tested these with our actual pickups, to make sure they were compatible with both the pickups and the cover plates we sell to match them.
Here are the 10 routing template openings this set provides, along with our specific pickups they match:
1) Single Coil (without Cover Plate)
- Use this to route and drill an opening for one of our basic single coil Strat-style pickups, when you want the pickup to come right up through the instrument's soundboard without using a cover plate. Matches our products
54-001-01, 54-002-01 and 54-019-01
, along with their pre-wired harness versions.
2) Single Coil (with cover Plate)
- same as above, but with a larger/longer opening to use when you intend to cover the pickup with a cover plate. Fits the same pickup varieties as #1.
3) Chrome/Gold Covered
- fits our chrome and gold enclosed/covered pickups (product #54-008-01 and 54-018-01, and their pre-wired equivalents). Use of a cover plate recommended.
4)
4 & 6-pole Harnesses -
for use with our pre-wired 4 and 6-pole magnetic pickup harnesses, product #54-020-01 and #54-006-01. The perfect size opening to accomodate the pickup body but still small enough to be covered by the cover plate that is included with these products.
5) Lipstick Tube
- creates an opening to accomodate our 54-014-01 Chrome lipstick tube and 54-022-01 gold lipstick tube pickups. Note that this opening is large enough to accept the full body of the pickup - use of a cover plate with it is recommended.
6) Mini Humbucker (without Cover Plate)
- for use with our 54-008-01 chrome "Snake Oil" humbuckers, 54-021-01 chrome oval-hole humbuckers, 54-034-01 gold "toaster" humbuckers and other "mini" humbuckers. This template includes the screw holes and is meant for use when you want the pickup to come right up through the sound board without use of a cover plate.
7) Mini Humbucker (with cover plate)
- same as above, but a larger opening that the whole pickup will fit down in, for use when you intend to use a cover plate.
8) 4-pole
Bass
- for use with our 54-005-01 and 54-017-01 covered bass guitar pickups. This opening accepts the entire pickup, with the mounting tabs, so it is best used with a cover plate.
9) Soapbar P-90 -
Fits our 54-007-01 classic soapbar-style pickup, with a bit of room to spare. Will work without a cover plate, though use of a snugger-fitting plate can help it look less "loose".
10) Full-size Humbucker -
this opening accepts a standard full-size humbucker (such as our 54-004-01 and similar humbuckers), and is sized for use with a cover plate, such as our 51-031-01 chrome or 51-046-01 gold humbucker rings.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE READ...
We ship packages via the U. S. Postal Service, either First Class Mail International or Priority Mail International. While these services generally get packages anywhere in the world in 1 to 2 weeks, sometimes it can take longer - this is almost always because the Customs Office in your country delays the package. In some cases it has taken up to 4 weeks for a package to be delivered. We will not consider an item as "lost" until at least 30 days have passed from the time of shipment. Also, you may be responsible for local customs duties and taxes depending on your country's laws. We mark package values honestly, as required by the laws of the United States, so please don't ask us to declare a false value, or declare a package as a gift. If you are an international buyer, please be aware of these realities BEFORE buying.
Recycled Materials...
We use recycled cardboard as packaging materials whenever possible. Those of you who care about the environment can appreciate the value of this, and everyone can appreciate the fact that it helps keep our prices lower since we don't have to buy new cardboard for packaging. This may mean that our packaging materials occasionally show some shipping scuffs, labels, printing or other markings, but used cardboard does the job just fine. Hopefully you will find a way to recycle it on your end too!
Best Value vs. Cheapest Price...
Whenever possible, we try to make sure we have the best price on eBay for the products we offer. In the rare cases when another seller beats our price by a few pennies, we stand by my claim that our offer is the best VALUE on eBay. We are always available by e-mail to answer questions as best we can for anyone who buys products from us and needs advice. We certainly cannot answer every question authoritatively, but at the very least we can recommend where to go for more information. With C. B. Gitty Crafter Supply, you can be sure that your items will be well packaged, will ship on time, and will get to you as fast as USPS first class mail can deliver it.
