I found this on Flickr this morning. I'm pretty sure that it's the missing link between me and rock superstardom.

I think that I would need a pickup switching tutorial for that thing. I have a pretty good handle on two pickups, but I don't know about five.

I'd love to have a custom tele shape with a strat pickup at the neck, a P-90 in the middle and a humbucker at the bridge. Don't think I'd paint tiger stripes on it, though.

...And how does the 3-position switch work with 5 pickups?

That's just silly.

I think that there are push/pull switches in the knobs. After that, I have no idea.

I was wondering if the increased magnetism from the extra pickups would affect the string vibration.
