Tele Bridge Pickup

My friend gave me a pickup for the tele project. It’s a cool Seymour Duncan 59 Custom Hybrid that he had in his Les Paul.

The pickup is black and I wanted to have chrome cover pickups. Santa brought me a cover and I installed it.

It needed some modifications to fit right. I drilled a second row of holes so the screws will peek out. I had to file some corners on the pickup and flatten it a bit.

Marking out locations for new holes.
New holes!
I removed and polished all the screws and got some wax to pot the pickup.
I melted the wax using my stove.

Now the pickup is ready to install. It also smells really nice. I’m not sure if I have ever seen a pink guitar with nice smelling pickups.
