First build ATL - Tommygun

[TZK321]

Love it! Good job!

. Thanks! I'm quite happy with how it turned out too.

Was it soldered?

Yes. There are 3 tabs on the cover. One of them was soldered. There's also a tremendous amount of wax that makes it challenging to remove the cover without damaging the fragile copper wire.

I agree, matches the look of the rest of the guitar without the cover. Well done.

Thanks, good to know if I wanted to go down that route with my Tele.

Heating it up with a hair dryer normally melts/softens the wax enough to remove the cover without the wax pulling at the coil. Don't overdo it though, or you'll lose all the wax potting for the coil.

Looks great without the Pickup cover
