Hey guys.
I bought a 2006 Highway One HSS
I want to add a nickel cover for my humbukers, but I dont know what cover fits perfectly in my humbuckers.
The humbukers are 1 Atomic Humbucking Pickup (Bridge).

I understand that putting a cover on humbucker affect tone. But thats the idea.
IMO a HSS strat with a covered humbucker looks very nice. Besides that, the advantage of having a HSS strat is be able to get different tones shapes. Knowing that a lot of guitarrists uses other types of guitars (with covered humbuckers) I want to be able to replicate that type of sound.
For clean crisp strat sound I got the two other pickups.
Can somebody help me? ...best brand best size fit.

So can anyone help me what is the best size metal cover for 2006 Hw1 hambuckers?

Hi,

The DH-1 Atomic on the HWY1 HSS is an open coil humbucking pickup with black bobbins.

Chrome metal covers were an option on certain hot-rodded Telecasters.
