Forgive me as I've seen a similar thread in this forum, but it was from 2011 so I figured I should get a more current point of view.
I won't have the finances for quite a while, but I'm planning an HSH pickup build first intended for a dual humbucker setup which I hope may at one point also fit a triple single coil setup. The body I want (Musiclander) is not offered front-routed with a pickguard. I don't really have the tools/skill to do much woodworking on my end outside of drilling holes.
From what I've read, it seems the single coils would likely not fit wood-mounted. However, they might if they were installed in humbucker adapter rings or a pickguard. Is this currently the case? If so, could I order routing for wood-mounted HSH and then add the rings or pickguard at a later time? I'd just assume enjoy the ringless HH look until it's time to change. Especially if I order a laminate.
PS: Yes, I'm aware of single coils in humbucker form, but I'm not looking to have my choices limited.
