I see different numbers for the width of the pickup, on this page it says both 2.79" and 2.75" and I found a 2.80" on another website. It sounds silly, but I can make this work with 2.77" or less. Could you get an accurate width for me?
Asked by Anonymous on January 28th, 2017.
These Filtertron pickups are 2.79" in length.

Will the filtertons fit in a gretsch g5420t
Asked by Anonymous on December 10th, 2019.
It appears that the Gretsch G5420T uses Blacktop pickups, which are larger in size than these FilterTrons. Modifications would need to be made to the guitar to properly install these in that specific guitar.
