Fit Info
Fit Info
Our Pickguards are Made to USA Specs, which will typically fit Mexico, USA and Custom Shop guitars. Some Vintage Guitars may have small tolerance variations with fit due to being built without CNC.
Our Knobs, Covers & Tips are made to fit USA Imperial Sized Electronics (ie: CTS pots, CRL Switches, Switchcraft Switches, USA Pickup Pole Spacing, etc.) These specs will also match with most Mexican, Custom Shop or Genuine Vintage Guitars. Knobs with Set Screws are typically made to fit Solid Shaft Pots.
Our Hardware typically uses Genuine Branded Parts (Fender, Gibson, Kluson, etc) or Our Own Gotoh Made items. These items should all be a direct fit with the respective guitars from those manufacturers (Mexico, USA, Custom Shop and most Vintage Guitars should be compatible, but always refer to the sizing in the description).
