Hi,
After I've been slowly re-modeling (re-painting) my guitar, I realized that I was missing all three pick-up rings.

The guitar is a Squier Bullet One by Fender. It is a Japanese or Korean make from the '80's.

I was just wondering if anybody knows how much it may cost to get these replaced (along with the springs), and where I may be able to find the parts.
I went to the local Guitar Center, and the guy at the desk simply said "good luck"....

Try:

The ones for Stratocaster should be OK. The springs are on this page too.

It looks like they'd work. Thanks, man.

How about posting a pic of the early 80's Bullet both before & after the repaint? In addition you might enjoy the link provided below. I joined a thread discussing Bullets made in the early 80's, pics have been posted and quite a bit of info is contributed by Bullet owners. In fact I think it's the best resource I've seen so far concerning your model guitar. Currently there are six pages and it's growing steadily.

In the past year I've played dozens of Fender and Squier guitars having recently returned to playing and have found that Squier guitars are fabulous. You get a great "bang for your buck". Current Indonesian and India manufactured Squiers out perform and have displayed superb craftsmanship as opposed to their Fender Mexican made counterparts. Additionally Korean made Squier from the mid 80's, early-mid 90's have finally started gaining the recognition they deserve. Examples like my '90 Korean made Squier II Stratocaster and mid production Bullet models (both Strat & Tele) are gradually being sought by collectors now that players have let the "cat out of the bag". For a long time those who "played" knew that the Korean made Squiers were "sleepers".
