So I've been planning upgrading my guitar for when this all calms down, here's a pic: http://www.tagima.com.br/uploads/produtos/tw61g1.jpg I've been thinking of going for humbuckers, I could either: A: ask the luthier to enlarge the wood and pickguard holes for a full size pickup B: get p90...

So my guitar has a varitone, which I either use bypassed or as a cool pseudo-split and pseudo-boost, it works well. But I was reading around the web, readying for chaging the pickups, and I've seen many mention that varitone guitars have the pickups wired out of phase, even implying it's needed...

A dream I have is of owing a guitar that is comfortable like a strat, but with a short scale, fixed bridge and humbuckers. So I am saving for building one with a luthier, but am unsure about what to pick for it. I think I will go with a 40-45mm Mahogany Strat body, Pau Ferro fretboard on...
