You can do that easily by just overriding PATH for when you're invoking pass

PATH=/your/custom/gpg/bin:$PATH pass

or define an alias like

alias pass='PATH=/your/custom/gpg/dir:$PATH pass'

Then only pass will use your custom binary while normally invoking gpg
will use /usr/bin/gpg or wherever your gpg binary lies.

Addendum: Be sure to have both gpg and gpg2 available in that custom
dir, because I think pass will use gpg2 if available anywhere.

Cheers,
Simon
