Homemade P90 Dog ear shims
Absolutely no fekin way I'm going to pay $42 & shipping from guitar parts for a couple of shims. Looking for options for homemade ones. I'm thinking neoprene or similar material.... Any thoughts? Cheers.

Be careful that it doesn't react with the finish...
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of that. Finish is satin poly, so would this still be an issue?

Soft or hard?

Absolutely, but my worry is do you need something with a bit of spring in it?
