Andy H Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Hey people! I want to swap the humbuckers of my Flying V with the humbuckers of my LP. Now I got stuck: I can't remove the pickguard because of the fixing of the tune-o-matic bridge. Pic: How can I remove them without damaging 'em? Any suggestions? Thx.

Nitefly SA Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 It's been a while since I had a guitar with a TOM but, don't those just screw out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoCaster Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 You have to pull them out. Use the studs or similar size screw, thread them in and then use a claw hammer to pull them out just like you would a nail. Use a piece of wood or something between the hammer and guitar so you don't damage it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
