Hi. First post here and couldn't find a related topic anywhere else. I was wondering if anyone can make some suggestions on if this can be done and if so, how to do it.

After reading some great reviews, I just bought a new Blacktop Jaguar in Blizzard Pearl. I like the tones I'm getting from the 2 humbuckers, but they don't compare to my Tele, which has a SD Hot Rails in the bridge and a bright, clean single coil in the neck (both of which I love the sound of).

I'm not crazy about the Tele neck at this point (and don't use it much and have the stock pickups for this) so I was wondering if it was possible to take the pickups from the Tele and install them in the Blacktop Jaguar. Would that require a custom pickguard and/or any other custom parts? If so, any suggestions where I might find these?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Should be doable without too much trouble but the pickguard might be a pain. You'd need it custom made. Pickguardian and Terrapin are a couple of good sources.

Thanks. As far as mounting solutions (the space for the Humbuckers is much bigger than that of the single coils), any suggestions?
