i have used brass plates under the PUPs in this build: https://www.buildyourownguitar.com.a...t=7399&page=17Originally Posted by Alexej
Second theme is, that I do not want PUS coverings, similar to the project of wazkelly https://goo.gl/KSY9W9
I want to use some Aluminium bolt, to fill the lower niches under the PUS, to drill proper and stabile holes for the screws, using the springs betweet the PUS and the Aluminium to keep it adjustable. So my question is, if the Aluminium could have some effect on the sound, did someone had experience with that? For it is not magnetic, but maybe could still have some negative impact?
i haven’t noticed any issues, and the blocks I used go the full width of the PUP cavity. If you are only filling the screw rebate I don’t see it should be a problem, especially with aluminium.
I am also going to use some M2 threaded brass inserts as PuP mounts for a later build. They are similar to these ones used in my current strat build: https://www.buildyourownguitar.com.a...t=8238&page=14
