This was a project I created when rebuilding a Squire Strat/Starcaster mashup. You can judge that's fine; I used what parts I had to learn finishing, wiring and setup…free is the best when learning. :)
I've included hole templates so you can design your own. This was created for the 48, 50, and 52-mm spaced pickups.
Printing Instructions:
- Measure the height of your pickup, you may need to scale. Not all pickups are the same. These worked for the two sets I have based on a Fender single coil.
- Material - Any, PLA is pictured
- Layer height - does not matter, the default .20mm in Prusa Slicer was used for the one pictured (.15 may give the slight curve a nicer appearance)
- Orientation - Recommend pickup front facing down on a smooth sheet. You can print facing up, but if you want a glossy finish, you'll need to wet sand and use automotive rubbing compound to achieve it. It's less work to achieve it printing pickup face down on the smooth sheet.
- Bottom (or top) fill pattern - Whatever suits your fancy. You can achieve some cool effects based on the infill patterns. (Pictured is Octagram Spiral)
