Ghost Pups with harness
from $17.50
In some builds it is preferred to place the pickup under the lid of the box, this practice is often referred to as "ghosting". Many builders have had good success using the MGB flat pups for these applications. MGB is proud to introduce our new Ghost Pups. These flat pups/harness assemblies are ideal for ghosting. The pickups include a high qualit adhesive pad for securing the pup to the lid of the box. They work best if the surface of the box is relatively smooth. Additional adhesive such as E6000 may be needed for rough surfaces.
The harnesses includes volume and tone pots along with a jack. A ground wire for the the bridge and the hardware are also included. 500k pots are used on the double coil pickups and 250k pots are included on the single coil pickups.
The Lucky 13s are stronger pickups and best suited where the distance to the string is greater than 1/4 inch.

Truss Rod 18 inch
$12.50
Two way action can correct either a backbow or upbow on a neck. Twin steel rods and brass threaded blocks allow for precise adjustments to get the perfect alignment on the neck. 4mm hex wrench included. We suggest creating a slot about .25 inches wide .5 inches deep in the neck. Make sure the slot is deep enough so that fretboard does not rest on the brass nuts. Also use a dab of E6000 or silicone caulk under each nut to prevent them from moving, do not glue the rods. The slot should be long enough to conceal the adjustment nut under the neck and/or nut.
