I am installing stacked single coils (humbucking singles) into a strat, and if i use the oem pickup covers from the stock pickups (which match the pickguard / knobs better) there is about 1/4" of coil windings exposed under the pickguard. The stock pickups are not hum canceling and the depth is obviously different, but my question is will this exposed coil cause any issues? Does a strat pickup coil windings need to be completely covered? If so, can i just wrap electrical tape around it?
Thanks
Dave
