Can the EMG SL20 circuit be mounted to a Silhouette pickguard?

Are you using the stock pick guard from the Silo? if so, yes it will work. If your using the one that comes with the Luke EMG set, no that won't fit. However, you'd need to get a new silhouette pick guard and move all of the components. I've been doing this with a Silo Special, just haven't finished it (it's been far too long). I always love Luke EMG sound myself and love the Silo Special as well, so I thought the 2 combined would be great.

Not sure if it helps but I will add this.
I installed a similar set a few months ago in a Silhouette Special:
Because of the specific EMG shape it required that the humbucker corners be squared for the EMG to fit. Once modified and if you ever want to return to a stock, or other non-EMG shaped humbucker, it will look odd. I purchased an inexpensive Silo Special PG on eBay that was surprisingly good with a fantastic fit so which allowed me to maintain the stock PG assembly intact.
This was the set:

Silhouette Special Pickguard Experiment
Right about now the long, cold northeastern winters start to bore me and I start looking for fun and sometimes challenging projects to occupy my mind for long periods of time. Planning, problems to solve, research, then the actual work, mucking something up, needing more research, parts, etc...
