Does a new set of pickups come with mounting rings?

For the most part, Yes.

Re: Easy Question

The only Duncan Humbuckers I know of that come with a mounting ring are Antiquities and Seth Lovers.

They all come with screws and springs though

Certain models do, but it is not the norm IME.

Re: Easy Question

Excuse me, Push To Shuv is right..... I thought I saw mounting screws for some reason....
Darn dyslexia!

For Dimarzio also, I haven't gotten any with a mounting ring. But I have gotten some mini Humbuckers from GFS that had mounting rings.

Re: Easy Question

I bought a set of Seths that DID have them, and I'm waiting on some '59s, so they won't have them. OK, got to find some. Thanks
So will the rigs at GFS fit? If not, where to buy them?

Re: Easy Question

GFS rings should fit. You can get rings from any online retailer like Musician's Friend, Guitar Center, Samash, Sweetwater, etc...

You can also re-use the rings that came on your guitar.

Or, you can usually find people selling rings on forums like this one.

Yes. To my understanding, that's because any old rings will not work with those pickups.
