Pole screw spacing on old 80s pickups.

[Dr Excess]

Hi, I am about to acquire some old 80s white label pickups, HFS and Vintage Bass.

They're for a project that requires a cover. Anybody know what the spacing is on these so I can get parts on order (post is irregular atm).

Also screw thread, I'm guessing normal imperial?

Many thanks.

Write the PTC. I’m sure they can tell you.

They've always used 49.2 mm spacing and regular imperial pole screws as far as I know.
