I have 2 Washburn Japan pickups that look very much like this. The mounting ring is not Washburn though; I would go with Yogi on that.

At least you'd have to stick to those rings once you've installed them 'cause they are wider than the standard rings so the screw holes would be visible otherwise. I intended to install a pair of the Schallers on my selfmade Iceman copy over 20 years ago and had already made the routings when I changed my mind and put in the original Ibanez V-2s instead. So I had some refilling work to do... Sound wise I can't say much about them, it's too long time ago and I had them installed for only a short time. But since I can't remember I guess their sound wasn't too great Juergen
