What do you mean by "custom sized"?

I have a vintage epiphone I had to replace the pickups on.
The new pickups have 2 screws instead of 3 so I had to replace the rings also.
The new rings are quite a bit smaller & dont look right on the guitar.

Did you get rings for a Gibson or an Epiphone?

None of these shops give dimensions, but you can ask:
