Hi and welcome!

Not at all. Your configuration is basically a SSH which is a very common option. A P90 is "just" a fatter sounding single coil, the wiring is similar.  That's a good start for a nice sounding guitar.

Nice! Thank you for the kind answer. I was wondering why I've never seen a P90 in the middle position. Do you think there's a reason in particular?

Hi everyone,

I just subscribed to the forum and i never built a guitar, but is my dream one day to do so and I'm already imagining how it would turn out. I have this general idea of a pickup configuration in mind and I don't think I ever seen a guitar exactly like it, i wonder why, and that's why I would like to ask you what you think.

I would love a single coil in the neck position, a P-90 in the middle and a hambucker in the bridge, with a 5 way switch strat style: neck, neck and p-90, p-90, p-90 and humbucker, humbucker, with the humbucker being splittable (so that i could combine p-90 and split humbucker, or just a split humbucker in the bridge for that twang).

What do you think? is it stupid? there's already guitars with this configuration out there?

I think it would be just so versatile!

Thank you very much in advance!
