Hey all - I have a set of humbuckers with fiberboard baseplates (with unthreaded holes for direct-mount). I want to put them in a guitar that uses pickup rings and springs. I have some nuts of the right size and threading to fit the mounting screws, so I was planning to glue the nuts to the underside of the fiberboard and install them like I would any other pickup.
Does this idea make sense, or is there a better way to go about it? I can foresee that some glue might get into the threads but I'm hoping that won't be a big problem. I'm not thrilled about permanently altering the pickups but I'm opposed to drilling into the guitar and can't think of another option.
Thanks!
