Fender pickup experts?

Googling suggests that Fender CS Fat 50s pickups covers are a bit like Schrodingers cat, in that they both are and are not a direct swap for bog standard Fender pickup covers.

Does anyone actually *know* ? 

Also what colour would folk go with on this, where the body has gone cream and the plate is greeny ? 


Red ones are better.

    Exactly the same as all other fender pickup covers, bar the ones fitted to the noiseless pickups and they aren't really supposed to be removed.

    they should be the same - granted some pick ups have taller pole pieces - but effectively one size fits all

    if to white and new jut age them a  touch - coffee dipped or in tea leaves fora  while can help to 'yellow' them - and if need be just simply scuff them a touch to look 'used'

    Any excuse for a gratuitous shot of your guitar strap.

    With regards to looks, a torty plate with aged white plastics is hard to beat.
