This guitar is armed with a pair of canted DH-1 Humbuckers.

Put another canted DH-1 with black bobbins in the middle position and install a push-pull volume pot for coil tap/split.

That thing is UGLY
Whoever "designed" it wants firing . Everything looks upside down (and not in a good way like Hendrix)

"I've had a great idea!, we take a jaguar body, flip it over and do the arm contour on the longest bit , stick in 2 humbuckers (slanted the wrong way of course) and put an upside down neck on it and see if some sucker will buy it"

It might be ugly but I find it more functional and laid out better than a typical strat which is far too crowded for me.

I love it, it's so freakin weird. I saw one at the local Fender Roadshow and that orange sparkle finish looks amazing under lights.

It's like Chuck Berry and Kurt Cobain had guitar sex and this is what spawned from that unholy union.
