This is an Am. Std -2010- pretty unusual ! It is rigged ''like'' an Esquire , but has got one P 90 under the pick guard ! I have never seen this before . Can this work proper ? I guess it will ! It's for sale , and I suddenly felt a kind of GAS......

That's pretty cool, i've never seen anything like that before (I'm also new to guitars though).

Let me know if the neck pickup sounds like you're playing underwater :lol:

That configuration is more common then you may think. Usually it is a three pickup Tele where the middle pickup is hidden. The pickguard is nonmagnetic and has no affect on the sound. However, due to the distance of the pole pieces to the strings, a pretty hot pickup with strong magnets is required.

I believe a P90 would fit that bill nicely.

No , I do not own it . It is situated in my home town - about 560 miles from here :( To far away just to try it , but I am considering asking a trusted friend and old band-mate to try it , eventually buy it for me :D
(OMG - just got 4 picks here .... too much time spent on here ? )
