Mini Humbuckers - Mounting Plates - Rings

First up - two pickups that I had in my LP Deluxe for about a week, and decided that I was going to route it for full size hums.

The Seymour Duncan is an SM-2B bridge pickup. Pretty much brand new, full length lead, no wear whatsoever.

The Gibson pickup is their classic Original Mini Humbucker for neck position. Again , this pickup has full length lead, and is still in like-new condition.

These pickups cost me a little over $100US each a few weeks ago. I am asking $90CDN or $75US each or best offer.



Next up we have a pair of original, and extremely hard to find mini-hum mounting plates. These are in perfect condition, with no stripped screw holes, and perfectly straight. Did I mention how hard it is to find these?

I'm asking $35US or $40CDN for the pair or best offer.



Finally, a matching pair of Mini-hum mounting rings. $15CDN or $13US for the pair or best offer.

Re: Mini Humbuckers - Mounting Plates - Rings

Are all the screws for mounting the plates and pickups included? Very interested.

There are no screws included with the plates. You would just use small wood screws to attach the plates inside the pickup cavities. The pickups both include the height adjustment screws. The Gibson pickup screws are actually soldered to nuts that keep the ring and pickup together. This is how they come from Gibson. The Seymour Duncan pickup is a little different. It came with screws and springs, but the pickup baseplate is threaded, which is no good for use in a LP Deluxe, or any guitar using the mini-humbucker mounting rings for that matter. So, the threaded screw holes have had the threads removed, and I will include some vinyl tubing for spacers. The spacers are necessary to mount the pickup correctly. SD does not supply them. Technically, you should get some nuts, and solder them to the screws just like on the Gibson pickup. That's the proper way to do it, but you can still mount the pickup without them if you're careful.
