Question on Mustang/Strat pickups

Do they have the same dimension? I'm planning to put a set of Strat-sized humbucker rails in place of the Mustang pups. Will they fit without modification? Thanks.

They are the same. You won't be able to fit the rail under the pickup cover, iirc. You may be able to with real duncan ones, but someone not on a Zune will have to find a link.

Thanks. So the base of the rails are wider than the stock pickups?

i don't think it's the base, i think it's the magnet unit itself.

i'm on a pc now, so i'll try to find the thread where i think thom showed the duncan ones did fit, but the other "off-brands" did not.

one second...
