Sorted - Lollar Vintage T neck pickup in G&L ASAT - Question

edited September 2023 in Guitar
Hi - I've just stuck a Lollar neck pickup in, in place of the G&L one - sounds really nice already but it's too far from the strings. The G&L pickup is taller and screws into the body of the guitar rather than fixing to the scratchplate. It's fixed in with screws and springs but these aren't long enough to get the Lollar pickup near enough to the strings. Could I just get longer screws and springs? If so where would I get them? Any other ideas?

Thanks.

    Doesn’t the vintage T go into the body too? Mine did.

    It fits perfectly but if I use the screws and springs that held in the G&L pickup the Lollar pickup isn't high enough

    Sorted this with some longer screws and some dense foam behind the pickups. Please let me know if for some reason this is a bad idea!
