Boots too large?

Sup yall, anyone have any experience with filling extra space in a pair of boots and what’s worked for you?

I bought a pair of absolutely gorgeous Grenson x YMC Transmission boots from Grailed and despite the boots being a 10 UK (I usually wear a 11/11.5 US) these things are absolutely massive and are more like a 13 US if I had to guess…

With them being boots at least you can’t really tell they’re a bit too large for me.

I’ve currently got a thick insole and two stacked heel pads to stop slippage but curious if anyone else has done anything else to fill up some space in their boots that didn’t fit quite right?

Anyone good at identifying pickups?

Purchased a MIM Floyd Rose HSS Fender Strat made in ‘95 in need of a refinish and trying to fix up some wiring issue (think there’s just a loose wire connecting to the jack so nothing crazy) but hoping to get some confirmation if these are legit Fender pickups or not…

Can’t seem to find any markings on them whatsoever and the middle pickups cover seems to be glued to the pickup cover or something so I can’t get that one off to peek if there’s any markings on that.

Any insight is appreciated! 🙂

Does this Floyd Rose 90s MIM Strat look legit?

Seems like at best a repainted MIM 90s Strat but could also be an aftermarket body. Mainly just curious if the neck and Floyd rose bridge seems legit!

Was able to find the serial on the Fender serial number lookup and seems to look good but wanted a second set of eyes! 👀
