Thanks, Stan. We'll see. It's hard to buy for this thing. The slots are for full sized humbuckers. DiMarzio X2N-B's are still available for US$90+ each, even though the mfg has discontinued them. GFS has lipstick tube humbuckers for about $40, which is closer to my price range than the US$180 that SD wants for them. Or I can get an adapter ring for minis, and drop in Wilkinson minis for around US$40. The GFS's come in bridge and neck flavors, whereas the Wilkinsons come in just the one flavor. In the end, I may just go for the GFS's because they will at least look cool...

Then there's the old "throw good money after bad" approach: For around $30, I can get alnico II bar magnets to replace the center pieces...but that way lies madness...
