Sources for 8 string active-sized pickup covers

[Deadnightshade]

I found this one:

Mojotone EMG Style 2-Hole Mount Soapbar Bass Pickup Cover Black (5 String)

Though the width is stated to be 1.5 inches.If it's truly an EMG 5 string bass (=EMG 8 string guitar) sized cover,it should be 4 inches!Maybe I'll throw them a line to ask about it.

Post other sources you may have found

Sooo does anyone make any wooden or metal covers?

 

[Deadnightshade]

I think that for metal and wood you definitely have to go custom.

Wooden covers shouldn't be hard for a luthier.No idea how they would be priced though.

I expected as much from wooden plugs, but who would I really go for metal?
I know emg has metalworks, but thay are passive sized and I'm looking far active

Gonna bump this to say that I've just ordered 10 of these. Gonna buy some 8 string Bareknuckle Cold Sweats too, I will let people know how this goes when everything gets here.

Aaaaaaand bumping this again to say that they arrived today! They are going to need some sanding on the inside on the lengthwise sides (did that make any sense?) to make them fit properly, but otherwise it looks like they shouldn't be a problem going in! Going to take my RG8 and all the upgrades I have planned to my guitar tech and I'll post a NGD... errr... new mod day thread and give a rundown of how we made the pickup covers fit etc.
