It goes like this. I was fiddling around inside my Gibson victory and lost a spring that goes with the pickups. Obviously I need a new one. So the question is, is this particular spring some hard to find custom nonsense or something I can get at GC?

Any store with a repair department should be able to sell you what you need. Failing that, there's always Stewart MacDonald.

You can also use foam rubber under the pickups to do what the spring did. StewMac has that available too; it may be longer-lasting than packing foam.
