BYOP stands for Build Your Own Pickup—the assembly ships without pickups, letting you choose and install your preferred models. Included are the 3-ply white pickguard, pre-installed potentiometers, selector switch, capacitor, the solderless Liberator connector system, and a screwdriver for assembly.
Do I need to solder pickups into this assembly?
No. The Liberator solderless screw-clamp connector system accepts both bare and tinned pickup leads, eliminating soldering entirely and allowing quick pickup swaps without permanent modification.
Will this fit my guitar?
This assembly uses the 11-screw hole USA pattern for mounting, ensuring reliable compatibility with standard American-style instruments like Stratocaster and Telecaster designs.
What skill level do I need to complete the build?
Intermediate to advanced builders benefit most—all heavy lifting (wiring, switching, hardware mounting) is pre-done, leaving you to select pickups and handle final assembly with the included screwdriver.
Can I swap pickups later without damaging the assembly?
Yes. The Liberator connector system is designed for quick, non-permanent pickup swaps, making it easy to change tones for different sessions or recordings without any soldering or disassembly.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
We collect sales tax only on orders shipped to California. Orders shipped to any other US state are charged $0 sales tax at checkout when you buy direct from our website. Marketplaces such as eBay, Reverb and Amazon collect sales tax in nearly every state as marketplace facilitators no matter who the seller is, so the same item at the same price costs less bought direct. Free US shipping and 30-day returns are included. Some states ask buyers to self-report use tax on out-of-state purchases.
