Im liking this black RG550, with a maple neck, and im wondering what it would look like with some new pickup colors in there. So I hope this isn't to much to ask, but if anybody knows where a photo of this axe with changed pickups is than could you post it? Or if you have this axe or a similar one with colorful pickups post it. thanks

I've been wondering the same, especially different color pickups because if I'm not to into the pickups of the 20th bk I'll get some diff wacky colors hah
You could always try some Bobbin Toppers from Universal Jems. Cheaper alternative

Don't remember if they have colored or just black, white, cream, zebra stuff.

F spaced just means Floyd Rose spaced. As the Edge is a Floyd type trem, the answer is yes.

On the black RG550 I would put either hot pink pups or fluro green pups.
Sorry i meant if the neck pup is F Spaced... i know the bridge is... sorry..
cool axe man... do the pups are colored or bobbin tops???![]()
RG770 with red inlays, binding and pickups.
Hope that helps.......

It doesn't matter if the neck pickup is F-spaced or not. The bridge pickup is better off being F-spaced.
Yuck! Should have been left alone except for white pickups and knobs.![]()

I was thinking like purple maybe, white seems real classy and a neon color might be pretty damn sweet
No probs dude. Anyway, all pickups on a Floyd equipped guitar are F spaced; bridge, neck, single coil or hum, and should be swapped out with F spaced replacements if you're changing them. Anyway, I have a feeling you are refering to the Bobbin Toppers right? If your guitar is FR (or equivalent) equipped, get the F spaced ones. Hope this helps.
