I have a hollow T style body from USA Custom Guitars. It's routed for two regular-sized humbuckers. I put a pair of Stan Hinesley (HAS-Sound) humbuckers in the guitar. I have the neck pickup (HAS-Sound Kashmir) set as low as it will go, but I wish I could get it 1/16" to 3/32" lower so it would be flush with the thin mounting ring. Are all humbuckers the same height?

hi,
no, some are thinner than others but you can just take the thing out, route the hole deeper, put it back and your done.
You may even find that its just the screws that are too long - take them down with a grinder and you wont even need to route,
good luck,
