Wood Mounting Humbuckers?

[DangerousR6]

This is a cool looking body style, what is it?... :icon_scratch:

Looks sort of stratish, but with a twist...

How'd they mount that HB without the tab routs showing? Rear mount? Is there a trem cavity?

It's easy enough to cut off the mounting tabs and then set the pickup in with double stick tape and shims.

It's a Tomahawk doublecut body (tomahawkcustomguitars.com) with a schaller Hannes bridge. I routed the pickup cavity with a pickguard humbucker template and the p-rail is screwed directly into the wood with the pickups own pole screws.

Cool, I've seen his stuff on the bay before, I'll have to get one of those. I like the double cut Telehawk... :icon_thumright:

I like that Telehawk, too. He appears to make some nice stuff for pretty reasonable prices. It's too bad you can't have forearm contours with lamtops, but that's not the end of the world. You can do an all-mahogany body, which is pretty attractive in and of itself, with all the cuts and routes delivered for $165. Gonna have to think about that one, since I'm not sure I have enough unfinished projects begging for money and attention.
