Fast and easy way to install pickup covers on humbuckers without soldering iron, which can be easy to remove. And as an example I will use my Gibson SG Special.
This video is a part of another full video – where I'm upgrading and restyling my guitar: My Gibson Guitar Renovation, Restyle And Upgrade youtube.com/watch?v=9RCRAS3loHo
I start with removing strings and a pickguard.
Keep in mind, that neck humbucker and bridge humbucker have different sizes. So covers have to be also different.
To secure them tight I use silicone for bathrooms. This will be enough to hold covers, but also you will always be able to take them off easily.
Make rock - not war!
