Will Bootstrap strat pickups fit G&L S500 pickguard?

Post by cminor7b5 »

Interested in trying some Bootstrap pickups in my Tribute S500 and was wondering if regular Fender strat pickups would fit an S500 pickguard?

They should physically fit, but the MFD pickups in your S-500 likely use different resistance and capacitance values in the volume and tone circuits.
