Pickup sizes

[DanHare46]

Hey

I'm replacing the passive Emg Hz pickups in my Jackson probably with either so BKPs or Dimarzios depending on finances, will they be the same size as the emg pickups so i can simply remove the emgs and install the new ones without much hassle.

The stock pickups are also covered and seem to have 6 screws holding them to the guitar, although that could just be the covers, whereas most i've looked at are "naked" and only seem to less screws in them.

Sorry if it's a nooby question but i don't want to buy new pups and find they dont fit properly

You'll find the dimensions for all our pickups here:

Are the wide spacing humbuckers for Floyd rose guitars, similar to Dimarzios F spaced and SD trembuckers?

Yes, but to be specific the BKP spacing of 53mm is a little wider than DiMarzio's F-Spacing (about 51mm) and a little narrower than Duncan's Trembuckers.

Well the distance from the centre of each mounting screw is 3.1 inches for the EMGs ive got in ath
the minute and for one of the dimarzios its 3.08 inches. I converted it to mm and it works out
to be 0.48mm difference. Would they fit as the difference is tiny.

Ah, I thought you were talking about the string spacing (the distances between the polepieces).

The spacing of the mounting screws will be pretty much the same, for all makes of pickups and regardless of whether they're wide-spaced or standard-spaced.  They should all fit your existing mounting rings, no problem.

Na i was talking about actually fitting the pickups, they all seem to have slightly different dimensions, but for a lot of it it just looks like different rounding

The BKP and Dimarzios have the same size bobbins

The Seymour Duncan trembuckers are wider and  often prove tricky fitting in
