    I'd just beware trying to add too many pickups, as each one adds a bit more magnetic drag on the strings. This can reduce treble and sustain. The Nigel Tufnel Musicman signature guitar with 4 humbuckers really didn't sound very good at all because of this.

    There's another entry for the ugly guitars thread.
    Could do with a supercharger. Forced induction fixes everything doesn't it?

    Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
