Okay, I'm getting tired of messing this up time after time...
Anyone care to post a list of which major steel brands use narrow mount pickups and which use the wide?
Thanks in advance. |

Easy way to tell is the narrow mount has the screw holes on the ends and the wide have them on the sides. Of course, like anything else, there are probably some exceptions.

All pre-RP Mullens have narrow pickups. Not sure about the RP model. G2s have a wide-mount cavity, I believe.
