I ordered two when I saw them yesterday. I couldn't tell from the photo they have up about the threaded holes. They do look like they might be slightly smaller holes, either way.

When I get them, I'll post some better photos.

Looking at the pictures I would say that they are not threaded holes. Pls let us know when you get them

The frame information has been updated. There is now a drawing of it on the page also. These frames have a smaller polepiece hole that will need to be threaded to accommodate the poles. The height adjustment holes are standard and are pre-threaded. Please let me know if you have any additional requests for info or questions.

Thanks, Tom! That's awesome. Looking forward to getting mine and checking them out in action.

I'm still happy to post some additional photos for the forum, if desired.

Hi Tom

Thanks very much for the update, great idea leaving the holes smaller we can tap them out to our hearts desire. Keep up the good work.

Cheers

Did they come that scratched up?

It doesn't bother me any as I will be building vintage style pickups with them but, to answer your question, yes. They came right out of the packaging and onto my bench for the photos as soon as they arrived.

I haven't built anything with them yet but will use them on my next personal set to demo them. ...but it might be a while. Lots of projects and personal builds are last on the list. :/

You mean you are making replicas of old pickups. Vintage pickups have nothing to do with scratches.
