Hey everyone,

After years of being to chicken to ever put an aftermarket pickup in my DK model, I finally took the plunge and installed a SD Nazgûl and I am soooooo pleased with the results. Such a simple solder job, right to a PCB board. Took literal seconds.

Now I’m thinking I want to do the same with my Sterling SR50, but want the same type of wiring scheme with the PCBs, concentric pots, dummy coil for the single, etc.

Does anybody know (if it’s even possible) where I can source these parts to build the same (or similar) system?

Pics of the guts and components included. Need help IDing part numbers or names of generic parts.

You could easily move the switch to the control plate, and install a concentric pot for volume / tone, but the silent circuit isn't going to happen. I don't know of any other company that makes something like that except for EBMM. If you want a single coil in the neck, I would just get a noiseless one. You'd also need to have a custom made pickguard.
