You have odd taste in pickups. :icon_thumright:

 

[JeffBlue]

Are you referring to the combination of type of pickups or manufacturer? I mainly use Seymour Duncan Antiquities which are as close to aged vintage pickups as you can get. I like mixing up the type of pickups to cover different styles and tones of songs and music.

 

[alterbridgefan]

Not in a bad way of course. It's just that your pickup combinations always look very unique. I would not have given a thought to a P90 in the middle position of a tele, but I'm sure it sounds great and opens up new options for you as a player.

I used a Megaswitch E-Model 5 way switch which keeps the normal Tele pickup selection on positions 1-3-5 (neck, neck-bridge, bridge pickups) and the P90 is utilized in position 2 and 5 (neck-middle/P90 and middle/P90-bridge). Adding the P90 is a bold and very powerful addition to the already excellent Tele tones. This addition to my guitars is something I will always do from now on. Although my next project is a carved top Tele body with a P90 neck, Bill Lawrence 500X middle and P90 bridge. I will be using a standard Strat style switch from Megaswitch S-Model. The hardest part is waiting for Warmoth to complete the guitar body and all of the custom routs.

Very sexy, I want a Padouk-topped body to go with my Padouk baritone neck.

I like the bridge. Nice guitar! :headbang1:

I like the bridge. Nice guitar! :headbang1:

The bridge is solid brass or bronze and is said to be a Seymour Duncan prototype that I had traded  a stamped steel ashtray bridge for from a friend (who, unfortunately, is no longer with us) had built guitars.
