Okay...now visible.
i voted for #1.
The contrast the pickguard creates is appealing for me, but the angles on the top side don`t work.
looks good in white...good choice.

I think Lindy`s P90`s have some fans. I`ve read nothing but good. I hope to put together a T-style with a set of those at some point in the not so distant future, but no funds for that presently.(or I would be buying the P90`s for sale at GC) I have Fralin pickups in my tele. i`m a fan of Fralin, when I can afford them. i think all in with duty, shipping, currency exchange rate, and taxes(Fralin`s choice of shipper means you pay), I was in for $400.00, for a set of Blues Special`s, and that was pre-covid times. I`m a know nothing novice as you know, but one thing I`ve learned, you get what you pay for. I have one set of single coil no name pups here I got in a parts caster i bought. They don`t have the depth clarity or range of the after market Fender custom shop or Fralin single coils I have. It`s easy to hear even for a beginner. And yes adjusting the height is for sure a "thing" but the high dollar pups still sound better to me |

I almost went the Rick Beato replica route. I may still do so down the road. Especially seeing that the DC is no longer a regular issue from Gibson.  |

That`s a nice clean look, and a beautiful blue. I have a strat body very close to that color.
