Hello, just wanted
to tell you about a few changes that are going on with my products and website. First, I really want to thank everyone for
the purchases they have made. I was not expecting orders to come in so quickly, so I am working with a machine shop to get
more blanks as quickly as possible. I appreciate your patience. By far the most popular product has been the chrome plated
tele pickup adapter. I am presently sold out but making more ASAP. I appreciate the great feedback and positive comments on
the quality of my rings. What did surprise me was how people are using them. I originally thought people would use them to
install a tele pickup in the bridge postion of the their strat, but I was surprised to find out that the vast majority of
my customers are using the adapter rings on their tele's to convert their humbuckers to a tele pup or to use if you want to
add a custom bridge. I am now designing my website to be more focused on the tele plates. Thanks to all who have sent
in pictures of their projects. I will have that pic page up before long. Also, check out a nice video by Willie Vega featuring
one of my tele plate. You can see it on youtube by searching on "wmillsguitars" or "Tele Pickup Ring",
Thanks Willie, I appreciate the compliments. One more item, I'm sorry to say that I will not be taking custom orders at this
time. Thanks again to all my past and future customers and have a Happy New Year! Walt
My professionally made metal pickup adapter rings are an alternative to a plastic guitar pickup ring or pickup adapter.
I make metal guitar pickup ring adapters that are equal to or better in quality than the hardware that is already on your
guitar. The metal pickup adapter or Pup Plate will allow you to correctly position a bridge Telecaster or Stratocaster pickup
where you originally had a Humbucker with minimal modifications. The Stratocaster pickup ring and Telecaster pickup adapter
are designed for flat surfaced bodies.
You can order from
me through this website. Keep watching for new styles of metallic and non-metallic pickup adapter rings as they
are developed.
With these Pickup Rings or Pickup
Adapter you can:
- Install a Telecaster Single Coil in bridge of your
Telecaster in the HB route
- Now you can use a tremelo on your Telecaster and
keep the metal around your pickup
- Install
a Stratocaster bridge single coil pickup in place of a Humbucker Route
- Install
a Telecaster style bridge single coil pup in place of a Humbucker route in your Stratocaster
