Which pickup rings for my 77 LP Artisan?

[f12]

Hello all!

I’m looking to replace my pickup rings on my 77 LP Artisan as it came with some cream colored (modified) rings. I’d like to go back to the black and I’m not finding much info except a few things: (if someone can help me confirm)

1. Is the neck pickup ring is the same for the middle ring?

2. Based on some research, it looks like I will need an m8 ring? What does the m8 stand for and what’s the difference between the m69? Also there are some numbers on the inside of the pickup rings that I've seen in some Artisans: "884" and I believe a "969".

Any good suppliers for these rings? Or should I try to hunt them down!

I've attached some photos of my LP Artisan for reference.

Thanks

Suggest looking at rings from Crazy Parts in Germany. Very high quality and typically better than US options. They are butyrate so they'll easily conform to the LP carved top.

The middle ring is indeed the same as the neck ring. Email Barbara and request a special 3 ring set. They should be able to accommodate.

No need to be concerned with M8. These will work fine.
