    I cant get the springs to fit back in with the screws, and then screw in to the pickup. Im sure i know how to do it, it just seems impossible because you cant see whats going on underneath the scratchplate while screwing it – therfore i cant see whats happening, is there an easier way to do it?

      Yeah, screw the pickups to the scratchplate, and then drop the scratchplate in and screw that down.

      Trying to remember what I ended up doing with my SG…? I think I did the pickup/spring/scratchplate screws first then screwed the plate on with the pick-ups already suspended under it, I think…
