It should fit with no problem, unless it's a covered pickup. I had to sand the pickup cavities in my Hamer to get a covered pickup to fit.

Really? Was that a covered TB pickup, because I didn't htink they were out yet. Plus since Hamer uses covered pickups on a lot of their guitars, I would have assumed they would drop right in.

The Trembuckers are a little wider and will probably fit in the guitar OK but may not fit easily into your old mounting ring. Which is why Trembuckers are always supplied with a new mounting ring. Trouble is, the new mounting ring is always black and has kind of a weird flat finish on it. So far, I've only put them in Stratocasters and all I had to do was sand the standard humbucker rout a little to enlarge the opening in the pickguard.

Does anyone sell normal sized rings that have the same matte finish as the trembuckers?
