Humbucker pickup rings


Some time ago I bought a set of really nice pickup rings on *bay. They are cut from a solid piece of black plastic about 3/16" thick and are flat. I like them better than the flimsy molded rings that everyone sells. I have looked through all the rings on *bay and can't find any of these, the only ones there are the molded type. Does anyone know where I can get a set of these solid rings for a reasonable price? I think the ones I got were around $10-12.

Sounds like some solid epoxy moulded rings which have been made in a mold after that the person designed an aluminium master template to create that mold....

I dont think you can find those on the market I'm afraid...

Re: Humbucker pickup rings


I'm pretty sure they were cut out of a sheet of some sort of plastic. I can vaguely see some cutting marks on the sides and holes. Damn,I should have bought several sets of these when I had the chance. Oh well.
