I´m German and I don´t know the exact name of these. I´m looking for a couple of these small black plugs that hold the Ovation pickups in place, some of mine are broken or lost, maybe there is a source for them somewhere. The people in the music-stores don´t even know what I´m talking about.

Are you talking about the black plastic things that surround pickups on electric guitars?

Or maybe where the saddle resides...?

Those pickup plugs? That makes sense. Those little end pins fall out. I bet John Budny would still have some of those around if that's what you're looking for.

I think we need more input...if these aren't good guesses, a picture would be great. There's no question that there are more than enough Ovation technicians that hang around these parts (aHEM, Mr's Budney, Woody, etc...!) and I'm sure we can help the good man out if we knew exactly what he needed.

Michel...?

Thank you for your help. Yes, I mean these small black plastic pins that are right and left on the acoustic pickup and go through the little holes on each side, ca 2mm diameter with a square head. I will ask John Budny, like always.
