Installing Your Own Pickups?

NOTE TO CONSUMERS: 6/32" mounting screws are supplied with the above pickups. The mounting holes on the pickup base are quite a bit smaller than this. Fender recommends "You have to apply pressure to get them to mount correctly. We do not tap the holes at the factory for installation so the consumer shouldn't have to either. What happens is that the wax potting for the pickups clogs the mounting holes on the bobbin. The customer needs to remove the excess wax from the mounting hole and the screw should insert a little easier." As Fender suggests, most installers (including the Custom Shop...) simply force the 6/32" screw into the hole by applying pressure downward as they turn the phillips screwdriver clockwise; I don't necessarily endorse this 'brute force' method, since damage to the pickup is possible. It's better to open up the hole slightly by gentle application of a small tapered reamer, fractional size drills or a 6/32" tap, although the final threads should be cut by the Fender screw itself. I prefer the tap method. Just twist the tap clockwise into the hole on the pickup base, applying light pressure. When you do this, make sure that almost all of the pickup base is firmly supported on a bench top. Don't run the tap all the way through the hole in the pickup base. All you need to do is open up the hole a bit and establish a thread or two at the top of the hole. Then, screw the 6/32" machine screw supplied with the pickup into the hole clockwise, using moderate pressure and making sure that the screw is absolutely straight, not angled at all. This should open up the hole and cut the exact size threads you need. DON'T cut the threads all the way through the hole with the 6/32" tap or the fit will be too sloppy, making adjustment of the pickup difficult. This is a job for careful people; one slip and you can wreck the pickup. If you're not sure you can ace this, better to have a skilled repair person do it.
