Help with Fender HB Pickguard/SD HB

[MacThomas]

Hi: I'm new here, but I've searched the forums and not found an answer to my question. I recently bought an empty Fender Fat Strat pickguard to try on my USA Strat. (The body routing will accept the new pickguard just fine.) I'd like to try out the Screamin Demon (TB-12) pickup, but SD's published dimensions make it a mismatch for the DH-1-sized hole in the pickguard. Is this correct, or is the Trembucker series a drop-in for this pickguard? I really don't want to modify the pickguard. Thanks, Mac.

Aw, c'mon, someone here must know the answer to this. I'm sure I'm not the first to want to replace a Fender humbucker....

I've never had any problems w/ what you're talking about.

FYI: It's now known that the Seymour Duncan humbuckers do NOT fit into a Fender USA Fat Strat (HSS) pickguard.
