Hello everyone! So I recently got a used Squier cv precision that came with an original Fender gold anodised pickguard and some EMG p pickups. I wanted to replace the pups with a SD SPB-1, but have discovered that it won't fit into the pickguard! Upon inspection, the EMG's seem to be just a tad shorter than the Duncans.
I've tried enlarging the hole by sanding, but just ended up with a slightly marred-looking pickguard (I'm not handy at all) that the pickups STILL won't fit in properly once installed in the bass. It's such a stupid, yet frustrating thing.
So I figured I could buy some original fender p pickup covers and put them on the duncans (they should fit given that it's an original fender pickguard). Problem is, I would have to order online and the shipping fees are ridiculous. Does anyone know of any cheap chinese p covers that are the correct fender size? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TL;DR: looking for cheap Fender-sized p pickup covers.
