Jazzmaster pickup foam- which way do you like?

Post by scole » Sat Jan 27, 2024 7:27 pm

About to put back together my Squier XII and I’m wondering what everyone’s preference is for installing foam underneath Jazzmaster pickups- one long piece parallel to the pickup under the center or two short strips perpendicular to the pickup towards the ends of the pickup?

I was leaning towards the two strip option.

I tend to go with two strips between the screws.

Thanks. Confirmation bias :D

I just finished buttoning up my XII this morning and this is what I ended up doing.
