Hello everyone,
I am having trouble finding the length-width-height for these humbuckers in Epiphone Les Paul basses. I am wanting to know if there is an aftermarket replacement for these. Thank you for your consideration.

Alright, I found the measurements, so for the curious 4 3/16" x 1". not sure how deep.

Are you sure they are only 1" wide? They look wider than that.

They look sort of EMG 40 size, 4" x 1.5".

I got the info from Ebay, there is a vendor selling parts and the measurements came from them.

Maybe thats just the measurements for the bobbin.

Do you have one of these basses? If you do, just measure the pickup.

That would be good. I don't own it though. The reason I'm looking at this is to buy the bass and upgrade it. I have an older bolt on Epi Les paul as well. I was looking for a replacement model to swap out. I think I'll just stick to modding my 96 Epi Les Paul instead. I was simply interested in the set neck design.
