Correction. How can you not put a Michael Schenker humbucker in a V? Duh!Ordered the Dean Lights Out bridge pickup and will put it in the Explorer. Seems like it belongs in a pointy guitar. Merry Christmas to me.

My normally reliable post office has hired illegal interplanetary aliens during the holiday season that can't read plain English and determined it was best to send it back to the vendor because they couldn't find my house.
Speaking of the V, I'm having trouble locating a black pickguard. I much prefer it to the white. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Does this help?
Do you know the model designation?
For example, mine is a “67 Reissue” 1989 to present.
Alright then…it’s an Epiphone version of a 58 V…it looks like this one from WD….on eBay.

Are you sure it’s off? The positioning looks fairly close to me, but I can’t be sure about the bridge hole and the screw hole near the bridge hole. I can’t see that screw in any of your pictures…it’s probably nearly under the back end of the bridge.
This is the one on reverb….

I to would like a black one, mine is a Gibson, but I guess I could just order it, but the black out on yours would look bad ass.
Cheers

I'd love to find a black one for my Epi 58 Korina Explorer. Not only are they hard-to-find for Epis to begin with, but apparently Epiphone made three versions of this model, all with different pickguards.

Damn! I ordered it around 7 and it's at FedEx already with a Saturday delivery date. Great service!
