Rails details


I'm installing this into one of my Ibanez guitars. The pickup in question is a Seymour Duncan  JB Rails model. Just sharing some details here... Firstly, the mounting screw flaps are now rounded as depicted above. Duncan fans are aware that majority of the flaps are the square type so it requires a good rounding off if the pickup is to be fitted into Ibanez guitars. Of course, not all Ibanez guitars were manufactured to accommodate the rounded flaps exclusively but majority are as such. Secondly, the brand name had been blackened out to appeal to those who dislike the screened label in white.


Thirdly, there are no brand engravings on the baseplate. Makes the pickup look cheap but that's blatant cost cutting right there.
