Pickup covers. Natural Wood Texture?


I have a Yamaha solid body with a H/S/H pickup setup and was wondering if there are pickup covers made to look like natural wood. Think a bit darker than the RGA 121 natural flat. I would not mind having them to make it look really neat.

This place has them http://www.pickuprings.com/

pretty neat idea actually, it wouldn't be too difficult to do really with the right hardwoods and some small tools/sandpaper. might take some practice to get them right though.

sorry I reread and realised you meant the molded type of covers.. dang.. did a bit of searching and couldn't find any but there are some cheaper wood ones on the bay for $7 or so, not sure if they'd fit right..

some pliable laminate might also be an option if it can be heated and glued around the pickup ring, but the real deal will probably always look better.

All I'm really looking for are the plastic textured covers because that's all I'm really willing to spend :P. If I find them, I will take pics! That is if I can find my charger.....
