D'oh! How could I miss that! My stupd mistake. Even so, I'd recommend that PBG or the factory tries a humbucker neck rout first to see if there is a serious weakening of the neck joint area. The joint is fairly far forwards and you'd be removing a lot of support for it by a neck rout, especially one that went right up to the neck. The neck might then become fairly flexible (it happened with the LP Jr double cut specials). It may not, but I'd suggest at least one test construction to check this before offering a dual pickup option as standard. And if the right against the neck rout was weak, then see what a rout 1cm further back did.
