Hi everyone,
I ordered recently a seymour duncan mini humbucker antiquity II, from the way I heard it, mini-humbucker can be use as p90 replacement (in term of pickup size, I'm not worried about the wiring).
Now that I received it, I'm realizing this will be an issue ; even though the mini humbucker is put in p90 cover, so width & length fit, the actual "humbucker" part sticks out quite a lot from the plastic casing, making it much higher than just a p90 where the pole piece are flush(-ish) with the plastic cover. I haven't put the strings back together because the height of the mini humbucker, once in, is pretty much the same height as the bridge and I'm pretty sure the strings would physically touch the humbucker.
The mounting screws are soldered to the metal case, the 6 pole pieces don't alter the height of the pickup ... Sooooooo, my question is ; is there a way to adjust the height of a mini-humbucker, without having to carve into my guitar cavity ? Or anyone had the mini-humbucker antiquity II and know what to do ?
