Wait until you see the back of the neck. Oh and it weighs under 6 lbs.

If it is Malcolm sound you want, Filtertron is the ONLY way to go! A HB in parallel will not do it.

No is the answer. It is not even remotely the same the same sound, tone or dynamics. Going parallel and expecting Filter is like kissing your ugly cousin vs her smoking hot best friend. Like Strat Avenger, parallel works in the neck position, but it is by NO means a filter neck position sound...

No DiMarzio w/parellel will sound like a Filtertron. If you want articulate and clear , Filters do it and bring something unique to a distorted tone. They don’t get muddy. They stay articulate. All AC/DC rhythm guitar is Filters. If you go that direction, do yourself a favor and look to TV...

something is up. Do both tuners say it’s in tune on open strings? What do they say about intonation on the other strings? If they are good, you may have e a bad string. I’m As you said you have the saddle all the way back, I’d tend to more possibly trust that says D vs high E. If both tuners...

See, wood mounting is actually the way to go rather than clear if possible. My Pine Tele.

Should have gone clear. You get to show off more of the body and not deal w/ fuggly tele pup rings. OR just wood mount the Tele neck pup like they did them originally.

Has this guitar been proven as being intonated before ? Need clearer info to go on. You state you played the low E on the 12th fret. You said it showed D or high E. That’s a radical difference. Bad tuners most likely, but need more info. I only use Peterson tuners for intonations due to...

How about clear?

It’s how I have my Gilmour inspired Strat set up.

I would ask you to consider the practicality of on/off switches for the pickups. My BMG is set up that way; and while I love the guitar itself, it is a royal PITA to use live. Those switches don't tend to lend their selves to "on the fly" changes while performing live.

Not I. They all serve different purposes sound wise or tuning wise.

Well spent a few hours with it. called my person as I want to send it back. Doesn't do what I wanted. I used the same exact settings as a video with the same guitar. No bueno. Not close. Lot's of post production I guess in that video.

Why are we going on looks vs sound?

Totally different sound as they are constructed totally differently. The originals used a different magnet compound. CuNiFe Also while a PAF style uses a bar magnet then slugs and screws into it, a WRHB does not. In a WRHB the slugs and screws are the magnets. In addition there is a reflector...
