So the story goes like this: I bought a framus neck (ovangkol with a ebony fretboard) because I' love the way they feel, and I've got a beautiful block of mahagony.
My first idea was to design a semi hollow guitar, but found out that building it would cost a little too much, so I decided that I would have to settle for a thinline telecaster, or at least something similar.
The thing that I like with semi hollow/thinline guitars that they sound more airy, more "alive" at least to my ears. So I would like to have round, airy, warm, dynamic sounding pickups, that can also handle enough drive for some alternative rock rhythm tone without causing feedback.
I was thinking about combining a p-90 neck (something fat sounding) with a tele bridge (something good for crunch), but a pair of mississippi queens, or a tele set are also not out of the question...
I've never designed my own guitar, so any recomendetions regarding the pickups that would be good for my taste and that would work well with the wood I have, the bridge that would best suit my guitar, body type,.... any experience with similar issues would be appreciated. Thank you
PS Sorry about my english, I'm not from a english speaking country
