    Liquifire and CrunchLab in Axis Super Sport?

    OK - I have a hardtail Super Sport with Piezo. Recently I have been toying with swapping out the original DiMarzio's (I know - great pups) and trying the Petrucci pickups in there. No fear, I will be keeping the original pickups.
    Does anyone know what the pickup spacing is for the Super Sport (hardtail with Piezo) pickups so I can order the right Liquifire and Crunchlab sizes (f-spaced or standard)? I am told it should be an easy swap and am interested in the sound I get.....

    Apologies if what I am proposing is blasphemy.

    My understanding is it won't be a direct swap. The A.S.S. pups are direct mounted to the body and the JP pups are taller

    A close friend of mine put that combo in his rosewood Axis, and man did it sound awesome!
    Given yours is a A.S.S. I wouldn't imagine the construction being very different at all, and the swap was a piece of cake for him.
    Wish I could help you with the spacing question, but I can tell you that the guitar will sound killer.

    Piece of cake was a bit of an over statement.
    He had to route out the body, since the ChunchLab and Liquifire are taller.
