Ilitch System install onto Silver Sky?

[Chase]

Has anyone installed a Ilitch Hum Cancelling system into their Silver Sky?
I know that I would have to flip the reverse wound pick up which is scary if it changes the tone.
Also did the system drill easily onto your back plate?

Any info would be awesome Im considering this but dont want to mess with the lovely tone from my Silver Sky at all.

I installed one on my Fender. They don't change the tone at all.

That's the point of the system, to my understanding....... I don't know why they aren't more popular..... noiseless pickups with classic tone!

I use one on a Strat pickguard and it's the best thing ever. Ilitch is also great to work with as well.

Ilitch can install a coil into a Silver Sky pickguard for you. He can also reverse the polarity of the middle pickup. I had him do this on a Strat pickup and it was totally fine. Also, with a wee bit of routing, he can install a coil in the body underneath the pickguard.

Using his backplate would be relatively unobtrusive, except of course that means drilling holes for a backplate unless it's an SE.

There are wiring options available on his website to work around a RWRP middle pickup.

I have one, but have yet to install it. It's brand new and unused.

If anyone wants one I'd be willing to take an offer.
