1) Radio Shack or other electronics supply store.Originally Posted by Cranium
2) Better for what?? The answer depends on what you're trying to achieve with the pickup change.

Also the screwes that came with the pickup don't actualy fit in it either..., sorry DVM no photos until I figure out the problem.
Update: I managed to fit the pickup and the screwes but after an hour of soldering I can't seem to get it to work, I don't know whats wrong.

Edit: After this experience I know one thing for sure, I'm never buying Seymour Duncan pickups again unless someone installs them for me, plus I never managed to make it work either, I might go to a store and have them reinstall the pickup(s), I'm definatley sticking to dimarzio from now on...

If this was your first time, I can understand why you got confused. Do some research before attempting any new mods to your guitar. That is why they invented Google. Once you understand the basics, it become easy to understand how to perform the mods. We all started where you are. You will be a pro before you know it. Hang in there.
Guitars:
Electric: Washburn HB-30, Squier Tele Custom Deluxe, Jay Turser Strat.
Acoustic: Seagull S6.
AMPs: VOX AD30VT, Peavey Envoy 110.

I installed my first Dimarzio pickup in my strat just fine but this was my first time installing a Seymour Duncan pickup, it was horrible, I'm gonna go and have a shop install it for me but this will be the last time I'm buying a SD.
