Ok...
Les Paul Standard - Painkillers
SG Goddess - Mississippi Queens
SG Supreme - Warpigs
Japanese Stratocaster - Trilogy Suites (I got the name right for once :) )
Vintage Advance AV3 - PG Blues.

So, I'm sure you'll sympathise when I tell you I've had to play unplugged for the last five weeks... :(

It would be easier to tell you what pickups I don't have, but since this asks what you have, here goes:

Unpotted AII Stormy Monday's - 1967 335
AII Stormy Monday/2 Sultans - HSS strat
PG Blues - 1986 '57 darkback Goldtop Les Paul
AII Mules - Raven West PRS Hollowbody Clone
AIV Mules - PRS Artist II
AV Mule/AIV SM - Zemaitis Pearl Front clone
Riff Raff/AIV Stormy Monday - Chambered LP
VHII Set - deciding where to put them - out on loan at the moment
Black Dog set - 1953 '58 Les Paul conversion
Emerald/AIV Mule - Zemaitis Metal Front clone
Abraxas Set - 1979 Hamer Sunburst
Holy Diver/2xTrilogy Suites - Flamed Redwood superstrat
Miracle Man set - Warmoth PRS clone
Nailbomb/Cold Sweat - Ibanez with Warmoth neck
Nailbomb set - Warmoth Mockingbird
Warpig/MQ - Richwood Explorer
Painkiller - not my sound - TO has it and i will be building a guitar for him with it
Crawler/2xP91's - PRS EG 4
Rebel Yell set - 1990 PRS Standard 24
Apache set - 1957 Strat
Apache set (all with baseplates) - Swamp Ash Warmoth Strat
Apache set - AV magnets - Bravewood 57 strat   under construction
Rebel Yell/2xMother's Milks - Bravewood Strat
Irish Tour set - hollowbody Strat
MQ/Slowhand/Mini-Mule - Custom Walnut guitar
P-90 rewind - 1960 LP Special
Pig-90 - LP Junior clone
Blackguard Flatpole set - Warmoth Tele
Brown Sugar bridge - 1957 Tele (BKP'd Epiphone mini-HB in the neck)
Piledriver Bridge/Slowhand Neck - 1959 Esquire
P-Bass - 1966 P-bass
J-Bass Set - Bravewood 62 Jazz Bass
P-91 Set - Wez V SG - still under construction

From this you can see the only ones I don't have are the Sinner, Yardbirds, Country Boy and Boss sets, though I have played a,, but the Sinner.

I'm surprised you haven't got a Boss set, Phil.  

Isn't that the set Tim recommends for a Roy Buchanan tone?  If I was looking for Tele pickups that would probably be my first port of call.

I played the Boss set at LGS one year but then the Blackguards came out and I prefered the sound of them.  There are a little fatter than the Boss set, and I really like the neck pickup in the BG's.

Miracle Man bridge at present.
Next stop, not sure just yet but possibly a ceramic warpig... need to discuss this with Tim in due course. There's time to worry about that, though!

Since we're naming which pickups and the guitars they're in, I've got:

Rebel Yell bridge/Abraxas neck - Gibson The Paul SL (probably for sale soon)
Riff Raff - Gibson SG-X
Black Dog bridge/Stormy Monday neck - Edwards Flying V
Crawlers - Edwards "Jeff Beck" LP
BKP-91 - MIJ Epiphone LP Junior

Next BKP will likely be a MQ neck for my Tokai SG, and I'll try it with a few different bridge pickups.
