Single cut version and I'd know what my next electric would be.

I will never understand the appeal or logic or single PU guitars.

Add a 2 pup guitar with one tone and one vol to that.
Why limit the guitar ?

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

I'll take it as a short scale bass, please.

 

[bsman]

I read this as Mae West!

If you only use 1 pickup, why have 2? That seems illogical to me. I've been playing guitar for nearly 30 years and can't tell you the last time I ever used a neck pickup, so why build a guitar with something that I will never use? My McFeely has a neck pickup and I think the only time I ever used it was in the first 5 minutes after I got it, just to hear it. It has never been switched on since.

 

[Chad]

Who is Matt West and why the fuck is he copying me?

Mine is way better though. Short scale and a Mastery

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

Pretty cool for a Rev. Chad's is cooler, tho.

If I am not mistaken, Hendrix played on a Mae West session. I don't know if it was this album.

I don't remember the last time I used the bridge pickup by itself, but I use the combo the most.

The neck isn't upside down.

The reverse headstock makes the string length on the low strings longer, giving them higher tension and the high strings shorter giving them lower tension. In short, you can drop the low E to D without the string getting rubbery and the higher strings easier to bend.

Plus with the tuners on the bottom side of the neck, you have the perfect spot to put a clip on tuner

I think it looks cool in a minimalist sort of way. Might also be that it's unusual, so it catches my eye better, too.
That said, of all my electric guitars over the years I've only had one with a single pickup, and I never really played it.

What about those big jazz boxes with the single neck pickup? I thought you liked those?

 

[CBHScott]

I am the idiot who prefers neck pickups, but I would rock the shit outta this

My Summer of Love guitar has the reverse headstock (because, Hendrix); I find it a bit confusing at times, for some reason. It is easy to clip the tuner before tuning and to remove it before playing.
