Roscoe LG-2005 + nordstrand big singles

So i was getting tired of the bart sound and have been missing single coils. I put a pair of Nordstrand big singles in my lg 3005 and it sounds amazing. Only problem is the are much shorter then the Barts, so they don't fill up the entire pick up routing. It doesn't look terrible but it is a nice looking bass and id like to keep it looking as good as possible. Any ideas on how to fix this. Like something i could fill the gaps in with that would look nice.

Also i have seen other people put nords in their lg 3005's and they fit just fine. Where theirs custom made for a roscoe?

Can you post a picture of the Roscoe with the Nords?

Contact Nordstrand, tell them you have an LG 3005, and need replacement pickup covers for your big singles. They will be able to make covers that fit our routs (we use the same size rout for 5 and 6 strings) correctly.

(We had this problem with our first batch of DC5's, had to send them all back and have Nordstrand make new covers for everything!
