Hey Guys!! My musicman stingray 5's pickup is tarnished/rusted!! What can I do to get rid of the rust??? Thanks for all your help and time.
 
Use the search function, this has been brought up a NUMBER of times. General consensus is NO steel wool (shavings can get into your pickups and damage them) and occasionally you can get some of the rust off with a pencil eraser (and if you want to prevent further rustage, use clear nail polish after they are clean).
