    Gibson custom shop does single pickup versions, but the knobs are usually laid out as follows:



    I stand corrected. I've seen R7s like that before, but that R9 is new to me.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

      Never mind, that neck pickup one is a ‘Shop. “I can tell by the pixels.” Lol They cloned the area between the pickups to fill the bridge pickup area and the knob areas are a poor fit too.
      Oh no.....


      Oh Yeah!

        I see that now. That's a weird looking piece of maple where the bridge pickup should be

          I'd love an LP like that, but I wouldn't play hard rock with it.

            Me neither, but I remember when I saw Bush live back when they first hit big and the guitar player was on the neck pickup all night. (I did not bother Googling his name.)
            So one could play grunge on such an object.

              I’ve had good results with a paf Pro and a jb in the neck as an alternative for a bridge pickup. They cut enough and I’ve gotten great rhythm and lead tones.

              It’s still weird not to have a bridge pickup for playing hard rock though.

                      This would totally work, but I'd opt for an internal kit.

                          An internal kit and no neck pickup, that'll mess with the guitar players watching!

                                I swear I saw an electric with no pickups, only a piezo once.
                                Oh no.....
