3-pickup Jazzmaster?

I GIMP'd up a mockup - whaddaya think? I think it looks pretty sweet, but maybe just slightly crowded. The advantage though would be mostly in tonal versatility, I reckon I could lose the strangle circuit and use the upper switch to turn on the middle pickup, with the roller pots controlling the neck and middle pickups' volume. I chose the CBS version for the mockup because for some reason it seems to clash less since the whole guitar is a little busy anyway.

Looks pretty damn cool, but you'd have to route for a swimming pool, and the screws for the pickups would come pretty close to touching.

True - well, I'm thinking of doing this for real as a warmoth project. I was actually thinking doing like a black korina body and doing a nice lustrous tru-oil oil finish - but with a bit of a twist - I think I'd do a burst finish with a dye (I have a friend who airbrushes professionally so he could do the actual burst pattern pretty easily). Oiled korina seems to have enough yellow in it that I could get away with such a 1-tone burst I think, and I think it would look pretty classy. I mean, I hope so - it would suck to fuck up.

May I interject?

Not mine, but it gives you a good idea of what to expect. Done with a push/pull.

Hey, that's pretty nice. That guy can play.
