Can you install pickup rings to a guitar with

direct mounted pickups? I have a Charvel Promod guitar that has direct mounted pickups, but would love to add some creme pickup rings to it. Is this feasible?

Yes, but are you looking to keep the direct mounts or use the pickup ring mounts? If you want to keep the direct mounts, you can add the rings then you will have to use a faux adjustment screw on the ring so it doesn’t look weird. Just make sure the rings you get completely cover the pickup body rout.

The guitar body I’ll use doesn’t have any pickups right now. I will be using new pickups.
