I Emailed them about the "Crazy Diamonds" set and Ben Answered me that:
"The only pickups we do are in the shop."

in the website's demos I mostly liked the MM neck and middle, but the bridge was just a bit to sharp for my taste :\
so still thinking about MM bridge with baseplate, ITs in the bridge or Apache in the bridge with baseplate.

The Apache will sound fatter. Thick mid-50's tones. A Slowhand-bridge is on option too.

Strange that Ben should outright deny that one, since there are several off-the-menu sets that they do make for customers on a fairly regular basis.

Anyway, the Slowhand bridge would be a cool match there, though the Apache is a bit of a secret weapon - despite its lower output it has a fat midrange and smooth top end due to the AIII magnet. Tim himself pairs the Apache bridge with Mother's Milks in the middle and neck in his main strat.

+1. The Apache-bridge is underrated. It's sound wicked.
