What's under the covers?

[Travis]

Is there a standard color for the colors on the covered pickups? I mean, are all the covered pickups zebra, black creme underneath or is it pretty much random?

It's random. I have a Custom chrome cover pup with red coils underneath lol.

Well, I guess I can remove the covers on my 59s and hope for a couple of zebras.

Cool, I'm pretty sure my JB & Jazz are black but I want to know for sure now! Might end up with one double cream and one red & green zebra or something equally crazy.

I would assume black as they are the most common, so I can't see SD using less common colors that are just going to be covered anyways.

On the Seth Lover and Antiquity humbuckers, it's either double-black, double-cream or zebra. You have about a one-in-three chance of catching any of those colors.

On all other humbuckers, it's supposed to be double-black. If anyone got something other than double-black, what can I say, you're special!

Does the colour change if you ask for loosely sodered covers?

Loosely soldered, IIRC, is like a code term for double creams.
