Are 408 Treble Pickups the same size as normal humbuckers?

[Jesse Johnson]

Hey everyone! First post here. I bought an SE Paul’s Guitar and love it, but I want to swap out the pickup rings for cream rings. Would the 408 Treble pickup ring work?

Bass, yes. Treble, no. The 408 has a much larger pickup than the bass pickup. Paul's guitar effectively has 2 bass pickups from a 408. Hope that makes sense.

Doesn’t the SE use regular humbuckers? Don’t think either the 408 pickup rings would work.

Yes it does, the SE pups are not like either of the 408 pups.

The narrow ones are the size of a P90. I know that from personal experience
