    You are overthinking it

      I guess this offering is not that interesting after all... no br00talz celebrity to vouch for'em, only us old farts with ears for tone seems to be interested.

      Sign of times, I guess... *sigh*

          Wonder if they will do a trem bucker? A slightly overwound PAF style would go great in a Superstrat for early 80s tones.

              I actually got out of bed this morning with this exact thought

                    With an A4 in the neck this could be similar to a production A4 59 that some folks have been interested in

                      I'm thinking that at just under 10K, that SNS bridge may be not unlike the BroBucker, a pickup which I like very much indeed. Minus the degaussed A5, of course, but a UA5 might bring it pretty close. Bet they're great with A4s though. As others have said, it's about time. I have two sets (boutique vintage-spec winds) that came stock with A4s and they're both excellent.

                        I would assume it could be ordered that way, though you'd have to ask the dealer if/what the upcharge might be.

                          Being a production p'up, it shouldn't be any upcharge for the Trembucker format... but what do I know, uh?

                            Cool concept for sure.

                              while waiting for the past several weeks for more info on a release date for the SNS set, I did talk to the main pickup engineer at Mojotone about an A4-based set. he had already mentioned a new model for this Fall called the Hot Classic, so he sent me a sneak preview version of the Hot Classic with A4 mags that arrived today. really great set. looking forward to what Duncan decides to do about the SNS set. I'd like to match them up in a rundow, as they are in the same class with very similar specs.

                                Not everyone wants to put pickups in Lesters.
                                Yeah, I prefer my LP with no pickups in it..... ???? haha
