Pivot Dampening Material

Post by Zkeener323 »

Are there any recommendations for pivot dampening materials for electric pickups. I usually find the Exhibition gasket works well, but I have a few that this would be far too thick. The original dampening material on the pivot unit is very thin. I have some silicone tape that is pretty thin but I feel that the pivot material should have a little more "give". The durometer isn't nearly as soft as the Exhibition tubing and I was hoping someone else had input on what works best in these situations. As an aside- what is the intended purpose (medical, craft, bicycling, etc.) for Exhibition gasket tubing? Perhaps that might give me an area to delve into for searching for a similar product.

Best,
-Zach
