i was wondering if you could put a humbucker at the bridge of a highway one sss. ya i kno there is one with a humbucker already but all of the pickups and knobs are black :shock: and i like a vintage look. so if you could tell me if it can be done and how easily or if you kno of a way that i can change all of the said things white or cream without having to change the pickups. btw i kno that they have vintage accessory kits to change the color but thats just for single coils.
i also kno that the american standard hss is white but i like the vintage headstock and the finish (and the price :) ) of the highway 1.
if there isn't a way to change it though i'll prolly just get the am std[/i]

I'm no expert of pickups but i do know that you can put in a humbucker singlecoil, one of those "hot rails". I have never done it my self so I don't know how hard it is to plug in. Here is a link http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/produc ... =100124823
One pickup with real good gain is the "chopper" by Dimarzio http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/produc ... 2460%2e003

You need a new HSS pickguard. The guitar is routed for a hummer in the bridge position.
