Removing pickup cover on 4001: grounding question

(1/1)

Denis:
Just removed the pickup cover on the 4001 and discovered it's plastic! It's a new replacement that came with the new pickup to replace the nearly dead original.

Question is, where does that ground go now that the cover's off? Can I simply run the screw through the pickup ring and spring, grounding it there?

Thanks!

Yes.

Denis:
Thanks, got it! Much easier to play with that cover off!

BTW, the pickup covers have been chromed plastic almost since they were introduced.
