Electric Delta 3-pole Pickup

Posted by Michael Bowlin on December 13, 2021 at 3:09pm in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion

Hi

Working on my 3rd build. On my first I used this pickup from CB Gitty. Really liked the results so I am using another in this build. My question is, what the heck are the 2 springs included in the hardware bag for? I just didn't bother with them on the 1st CBG, do I want to use them on this build?

    Oh, i see.... That's a good idea to use them as the mounting spring.

    If mounting to the neck, the spring will go under the pickup tab instead of on top. Mounting to the neck is actually stronger, structurally?

      I see, this is mounting the pickup to the lid rather than to the neck. I think I like that idea. Might just give it a try on this build. Thanks!

    I believe they are for the screws that hold the pickup in place. they are used for tension adjustment of the height of the pickup
