Hi,
I recently picked up a 1960 t100 that has been refinned and a few other small things, but it still has its original neck pickup and a few other parts. I just purchased an early franz neck pickup (and some repro covers), and plan to flop the magnets around and change the leads for a rwrp setup and use it on my t100.
The main question I have is whether the franz will top mount in the bridge position, or does it require the same rout as a neck pickup? This particular pickup does not have the lead attachment plate that hangs down off the bottom of the pickup- it appears it was removed at some point.... I do not have the new covers in hand yet, but it appears that the lead position pickup is mounted higher off the guitar under the cover....think I will have luck top mointing it? Or will I still have to cut a slit for the adjustment screws to rest in?
Thanks!
