On Hold - Hot Rails Neck Pickup - Cheapish . .

Slim fitting as the cutout is Single Coil Size and not the typical Fender Rout . . . To suit Cort MBC-1

Whats out there :-)
Id just like to point out that, despite all the video and DNA evidence, it genuinely wasn't me, your Honour  !

    Might be able to help you out, but not 100% what brand/model it is till I remove it. Although, I think it's an IronGear.

    What colour are you looking for?

    Hello @Slimbert ;;; . . . Colour wise I'm not fussy, black ideally but hey :-)   I'm just mindful of the shape as the rout in the body is literally the same shape as the pickup cover . . . Why are you swapping it out ??

    I've been messing around with different pickups, as I do with all my guitars. It's currently in the middle position of my Strat, but it's an interchangeable middle/neck one.

    It's cream/ivory coloured. And the shape makes me think it's an Artec rather than an IronGear. Either way, it'll be quite hot as I always prefer hotter pickups.

    The screw positions are standard strat width, so should fit perfectly. I can measure the spacing/size to check dimensions.

    It'll be out of the guitar today or tomorrow. I'll multimeter it and let you know the output.

    It'll also be cheap!

  • I've got a Kent Armstrong STHR1 in black that I swapped out of the bridge position of my Fernandes when I put the Mojo pups in. Even though it was in the bridge it has plenty of wire. Can send you photo tonight if you are interested.

    I don't think that pickup will fit because of the routing on the guitar. The space for the pickup is the size of a regular single coil. It won't take the bigger base plates you usually get with dual rail pickups.

    Honestly won't know till I open it up. There's two dual rails in it, although one is an extremely hot bridge. I'm sure one doesn't have the wider base plate that you need to avoid. Just can't remember which one.
