I have an SH10 Full Shred bridge and an SH-1N and I was thinking about combining the two and making a set for my Kramer Imperial which is an Alder body, maple fretboard, top mount OFR...

Id use the screw coil from the 59N on the bridge that way when I'm done I can put all hex in the 59/FS bridge and fillisters back in the 59N/FS neck to make them look like a stock FS/59 set...

Im thinking about going with a ceramic in the bridge and keeping the A5 neck... My only concern is the fact that the neck pup will be rather hot in most ppl's opinions... for argument's sake Im essentially building a double hex 59/C with a ceramic.... and furthermore going a with a 59/C in both the neck and bridge and I haven't heard much on a 59/C in the neck....

I could lower the neck or wire it in parallel or set it to split to the FS coil all the time to help alleviate any volume mismatches that might occur...
Im trying to utilize what I have here in order to make a unique set but I also want it to be fully functional..

My orig idea was to use a double screw JB and and a double screw 59N... I built my double screw JB and added a ceramic which essentially made a double screw Dokkenbucker or a ceramic Holdsworth, whichever.... this pup is a trem spaced or Id make a FS/JB or a 59/JB variant...


I also thought about doing the 59/FS hybrids but swapping the fillisters from the JB with the hex on the 59/FS... which would make 3 unique pickups....


Im not dead set on anything just tossing around idea and like I said I was wondering about the 59/FS as a neck pup... Now I am using a 59N which will create a slightly greater coil mismatch, which might be to the benefit of the neck position...

Thanks in advance.
