A fantastic addition to any humbucker that needs a little extra push in output, and/or needs a bit more articulation. 
These ceramic spacers slip in where your maple/plastic spacers usually would be under the bobbins, against the pole pieces of your humbucker. Slip them in repelling against the magnet on the other side of the pole and you they will increase the magnetic field strength at the top of the pole, underneath your strings - essentially like a mini P90. A stronger field strength will increase output and clarity - fantastic for pickups that are used under high levels of gain, or to remove some muddiness from the neck position.

Very easy and effective mod! (3.2mm)

I bought a pair of ceramic spacers and used them on a set of 70s Deluxe-style mini humbuckers. First of all, just using one spacer in an existing pickup is an excellent mod - you don't have to use two; using two changes your pickup quite significantly! Using one works just fine and creates a less dramatic change.

The mini hums sounded cool but were pretty weak - quieter than my Jaguar and a lot quieter than my Jazzmaster! I wanted the minis to sound somewhere in-between my Jaguars and Jazzmaster, both in tone and output. Adding a ceramic spacers on the screw coil side of the mini hums boosted the output, gave increased low end that's tight and punchy, and gave it a little extra high end sparkle that it was missing, even with 1M pots.

Very pleased with the results! Achieved exactly what I wanted them to! Perfect fit even in a mini humbucker.

I was a bit hesitant to try them as I had previously bought a custom Alegree humbucker a couple of years ago that used 2 ceramic spacers with an A4 mag in the neck - I found it way too powerful and bassy. However, using just one is really nice and it works perfectly in the mini hums!
