anyone know where I can get chrome covered pickups? I'm new to this. Or can I just detach the chrome covers from my current humbuckers and use 'em on the new pickups?

Any pickup combis to recommend from seymour duncan?
Or does anyone know where I can get gibson classic57s here in Singapore?

Make sure they fit before u buy em. Humbucker sizes are not always standard. I did some research myself some time back, and the bobbin sizes defer from brand to brand, and sometimes even model to model. Make sure the pole spacing matches as well.

I would recommend u get new covered pickups instead. Removing the cover without proper procedure probably would destory ur coil windings. And you would likely need to repot the pickups after you mount the covers on em.

Generally the sizes are standardize with the only excepection that I know is the EMG 707 when it will not fit into any 7 string guitar without modification as it uses a bass pickup housing. or unless you are talking bout switching from something like hb to P90, than u need to get a P90 in a humbucking housing.

Actually not so. I'm not just speaking of F shaped, trembuckers vs "standard" humbuckers either. Just for dimarzios alone, I have seen "standard sized" humbuckers come in 3 different bobbin/pole spacing sizes. Esp crucial if you are talking bout fitting a nickel cover over it, since the pole positions have to line up properly.

E.g. even Dimarzio's F shaped and Duncan's Trembuckers which are designed for wider spacing for tremolo positions, are different in size. The Dimarzios are "standard" sized with wider pole positions, whereas the trembuckers are overall larger in size.
