I just put a set from an SE Paul’s on reverb. If you’re interested, let me know. $85 shipped.

The channel lock method popped up early in a how-to google search, so I went with it. But your method would be better. Thanks.

Hi everyone. First time poster, but I’ve read lots of helpful posts here. I wanted to relay my experience with changing the pickups, rings, and tuners on an SE Paul’s Guitar, since I couldn’t find all the information I needed in one spot. Hopefully this helps someone else. This guitar sounded...
