Hi all..I'm about to embark on installing an old Sekova guitar pickup into my recently constructed CB Diddley Bow....After thinking about various mounting options i came up with this one..I remember seeing a DBo pic with a jazz bass pickup mounted similarly but i figured i'd ask "The Nation" for opinions.....Thanx much... Mike

It came out pretty darn nice and the electric tone is awesome!!..... Pic 1 after i mounted the pickup to the lid and fished the wires through AND NOW I CAN USE DISTORTION!!!! LOL!!! I
Pic 2 (above) roughed-out access hole..Pic 3 (below) smoothed access hole
