I went to drop in some EMG's (6 string 81) into my guitar and notice that they don't fit. In fact, it was very hard not to notice this.
Anyway, I go online an see people recommend taking a dremmel to your guitar to make it fit. My guitar is worth a lot more then a EMG pickup, so I think I'll take the dremel to the EMG instead. Seems obvious.
Has anyone tried this? am I about to destroy my pickup? It's a very minor amount of material that needs to be shaved from the corners.
Here's the inside of an EMG. Looks like there is lots of clearance and extra material around the perimeter and at the corners to shave off.
What do you think? will it work?
