    I have not heard of anyone painting over the pole pieces, but it should work!

    I have a set of black covered humbuckers where you see the 6 black screw pole pieces, (not the surrounds). If you want to trade?!

    Hey Trevor, thank you so much, that's very kind to offer.
    I dont feel ok to trade these pickups because literally I don't know how they sound! They might be great, they might be ok, or they might be real bad!!

    I guess I'll go with the spray paint option and document here how it goes.

    This build has hit a partial road block because over the last month or so I really got into playing music and recording a lot of stuff and ideas, and that took the majority of my music related time!!
