Yes. However, not all Guitars have holes that are large enough to fit a humbucker, so some woodworking may be necessary. Many companies such as Gibson and Seymour Duncan make smaller-sized humbuckers so they can be fitted to guitars with single-coil housings, without having to damage the guitar by enlarging the holes, a modification that tends to seriously damage the resale and investment value of a guitar.
