These low-profile pickups are designed specifically for surface mounting on cigar box guitars. They eliminate the need for cutting a large hole in the box and slotting the neck. Simply mount on the surface of the box and run the wire through a small hole to connect with the rest of the electronics. 8.8k Pickup. Dimensions are 2.5" wide, 1.65" tall and .23" thick.
Covers not included, find 6 string covers here.

I installed one of these, with the aluminum cover, on a 2955 Harmony Archtop. The top braces don’t allow for a humbucker-sized hole, so the surface mount was the answer. The low profile worked great with the string height, as well. Now, the Harmony is a roc and roll machine.

I ordered this for a 60’s vintage electric guitar project… I was having a hard time finding a top mount pickup for my guitar project until I found this site.
This sounds awesome in the bridge position, and pairs perfectly with a Seven-Fitty in the neck position. I like the fact that with the Boxbucker you only have to drill a hole for the wire, but otherwise it nestles perfectly in the cover---I just use a thin layer of E6000 to hold it in place AND create a bit of a gasket to absorb any unnecessary vibration and mitigate microphonic feedback. Gives my round CBG build the raw sound and unique appearance I wanted for use as a dedicated slide guitar for an Americana project I've been hired to do session work with.
These work great with the super sixer neck on an electric acoustic guitar
