Has anyone installed an EMG 81 TW, or any TW, pickup in a warmoth Strat body with a standard humbucker route (rear route body)?

They are 1.1” thick, and in my case would have pickup mounting rings and a recessed Floyd rose bridge. Would this fit and allow low action?

Thanks!
 
Best i can do is a vip with a wraptail and neck angle.

57/66tws fit, but barely. I have 2mm from bottom of string (unfretted) to top of pickup.

They really need a bit more than that, but I deal with it. That height makes for tasty sounding single coils.

The bridge has no issues with height due to the neck angle. I keep it balanced with the neck for output, but it sounds better set lower.

These puppies are HUGE! Had there been no neck angle, id be routing the body.
That said, I don't think they'll fit a standard rout, but the only way to know for sure is to call in.

They may be able to upcharge deeper routs or something.
