Hi,

I have an Indus with Paf Pro and Tone Zone but wanted to switch them out for Bill Lawrence pickups. I however just noticed that the pickups on the Indus are held by two screws on one side and one on the other. Any ideas how i get around this without having to drill holes into my guitar? :-)

Thanks in advance

The only way is then to drill holes in the pickup base.

Question. Cause the Humbuckers that we get from the market comes with only 2 holes, and I don't think there is space for drilling another hole at the pickup base. Do u have another solution for replacing the current pickups? :)

Most of the pickups have room, otherwise you may have to make a little plate with the 3 holes and fix it on the base (with the center hole).
