Title: First post.. Nailbomb set with Mississippi Queen in the mid?
Post by: TheDev01dOne on February 09, 2008, 12:09:25 AM: Okay well I'm planning to get a custom Telecaster stye guitar built, looking for some good modern humbucker sounds since I have plenty of single coil Teles and Esquires now..

The pickup combo I'm thinking of is Nailbomb calibrated set for bridge and neck and a mississippi queen in the middle..

Want to wire it with an on/off toggle for each pickup and a master volume and tone pot..

Would the nailbombs and Mississippi queen go okay together do you think?

Here's a Kisekae of how the guitar will pretty much look.. (Obviously with the HSP-90 in the middle not a PAF)

It also might be worth asking which is better in the middle, the MQ or the NB neck, and perhaps consider a custom wind?

Yeah I wa thinking there might be volume difference problems or something between the NBs and MQ, that's kinda what I'm mostly worried about ATM.

Thanks.
