Re: SDUG Ultimate Axe: Vintage Entries
As has been said, Les' Epi is spanking - bags of cultural capital.
Love it! Bet it's got monster tone with the Strabros. Did you have the original pups when you got the guitar? If so, what did you think of them?
Your wiring scheme sounds interesting, bit Brian Mayish with the ootp in series combos.
I'd like to get a candy apple red BL550. These natural ones with their thin finishes are cool as well, very organic.

My 1981 "StraBro90" Ibanez Blazer.
This is one of the first new-style Blazers ever built. Full brass trem including saddles.
Mine sports a full set of Strabro90 pickups, the 2008 SDUGF user appreciation pickup. The wiring allows the bridge pickup to go out-of-phase and in-series with the 5-way switch, and separate tap for bridge and neck. So you can "subtract" half a neck or middle pickup from a full bridge pickup via OOP and then put it in-series to add some meat back.
