The SH models do not, the TB models are slightly wider and use a different ring.

If you have a Dremel, a file or some sandpaper and a little patients you can get a TB into a Gibby ring.

You should be able to *just* get a TB in a standard pickup ring. However, if the TB is covered, you'll have to pull out an exacto nice and shave the ring down a bit to get it to fit.

I was wondering about that. It seems like the nickelcovered tremspaced pickups would need some special fitting in almost ANY application.

The thing I wish Duncan would change is the bolts! I hate flatheads....I wish they'd switch to phillips head! Working with flatheads near a guitar finish or glossy pickguard is risky. The stupid screwdriver always slips off to one side.
