I wanted to try my PATB-1 in the bridge of my new HSS Strat, and there are two adjustment screws through the pickguard but only one hole in the baseplate. Is there a solution that doesn't involve replacing/drilling the pickguard or baseplate?

That's because Fender uses two on one side and one on the other or two and two. Cheapest solution is to drill the proper size hole between the two on the pickguard. Aside from that, get a different pickguard. So, no, there's not really any other solution. -
ArtieToo has a workaround for this which doesn't involve the pickguard mods. I think he uses a small rectangular piece of hobby brass with 3 holes. The Duncan baseplate attaches to the middle hole and the Fender screws use the outer 2 holes. If he does not see this post, shoot him a PM for the full detals.Originally posted by misterwhizzy View PostI miss the 80's (girls) !!!

Thanks for the reminder. I was supposed to post pics in that other thread, and forgot all about it. I'll try to get some up tomorrow.Originally posted by JamesPaul View PostComment

Yeah I am having a hard time imagining what this looks like.Originally posted by ArtieToo View PostAdministrator of the SDUGFComment

It needs to be "right-sized" but imagine snipping a 3-hole piece off of a flat piece of an erector set.Originally posted by Mincer View Post
