CoLoMbO Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 I have an Epiphone Les Paul Custom (bought it around 2006), and one of the pick up rings crack on me, and i have tried several mounting rings but can seem to find the right one. The gibson les paul rings are slightly to small as well as some other proline model i tried out. It seems that they run a non standard size on both the pick up rings and pick up ring bolts. Guitar center doesnt carry it, and after being on hold for like an hour and being tossed around from person to person, gibson customer service says that they are back stocked 2 weeks (and they are not helpful at all). Anybody have suggestions or alternatives? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoLoMbO Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Ebay (many sellers) Guitar Fetish All Parts Stew Mac riiiiight... but i was looking for more like a model number, or brand name of alternative mounting ring that fits for the neck and bridge pick up.... "epiphone les paul custom mounting ring" on ebay doesnt exactly give the best results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midiman56 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 1. Go here: http://www.greasygroove.com 2. Pick out the surrounds you like and choose "Epiphone/Import" insread of Gibson. 3. Give them your money. Doesn't get a whole lot easier than that! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
