Hi all, I'm starting a long dormant project shortly. I have a '68 Jaguar that I inherited, and it's been gouged out to accommodate humbuggies. I don't like no humbuggies in no Jaguar, so I'm going to return it to that.
Problem is what you see below:
So, I will probably just route out the rest of the body so I can put a block of wood in there and then route out again for proper Jaguar pickups. Probably just use the pick guard as a template for those holes, but what I don't know is, how deep are the cavities that the Jaguar pickups sit in?
Can anyone measure the depth of the pickup cavities on a Fender Jaguar for me?

Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

Perfect- no idea that information was on here. Maybe I need to spend less time arguing about bullshit and more time using the search function- there, I said it for you all!
Thanks for the help.

I did think about putting some Firebird pickups in it, but I'll put it back to being a Jag. It'll be a slow process, though.

What a coincidence, I'm about to route my MIJ Jag for humbuggies. Wanna just swap?
