While I can’t afford to pursue the plan with the natural - I’m not destitute.
When I owned my old MM - I used to tape over the bridge pickup polepieces, I seem to press into the strings and catch my fingertips on the raised polepieces.
Now I’m older, and wiser - I can see the pickups aren’t sealed into the covers.
So - to eBay...
Had to buy two sets - but at £4 a Chuck, not bothered in the slightest. Probably won’t need the neck pickup ones - but might do if there’s any “clicking” from contact.
my Sadowsky doesn’t have raised polepieces on the j pickup, so it doesn’t bother me - but on all of the stingrays I’ve owned it’s been an issue too.
Just got soft hands 😂
