Help on PGP and 59N pole spacing, COVERS!!

[RickyduRock]

Hi There!
I've tried to search the forum, however, there's a lot of information and I don't have enough time do a fine searching. Could someone help me?
I have a Pearly Gates Plus (4c) bridge and 59N (4c) neck in my LesPaul.
My plans are to install covers in that pickups, already made that, but it was unsuccessful. That covers were removed from epiphone pickups that I used to have in my gadget box. The pole spacing in seymour pickups seems to be a little bit narrow than the cover I've installed. What can I do?
The pole spacing of PGP and 59N are the same? Can I buy Seymour's covers?
Are Seymour's covers all the same, or they have distinct pole spacing for each one, bridge and neck? Which are the values for pole spacing in both pickups? 2" for both?

Sorry for so many questions. I've a friend enjoying his vacations in west of USA (S.Fco, Hollywood, LA, etc) and he is coming back to Brazil in July 7th.
Are there any special store in that area with good prices, that he could buy those seymour compatible covers and bring it to me??

Regards

Henrick

Henrick, Seymour sticks with the vintage spacing, unless you get trembucker spacing; both the 59n and PGP are vintage spaced. The proper covers can be bought from SD for $15 a piece for the nickel silver, and $20 for gold (I think, I've never bought gold).

Hope that helps!

BTW, welcome to the forum.

Thanks Luke!
Do you know the correct distance for that pickups? 2"?
Both are normal spacing, no trembucker.

Across the polepieces?

Distace across polepieces should be in the the pup specs on the main site.

Glad to help!
