I'm building a Warmoth L5S hollow body guitar w/ 2 F holes. (It's a oversized Les Paul "type" shaped guitar, that has been hollowed out a lot. (here are the specs http://www.warmoth.com/guitar/bodies/vi ... action=l5s ).
The body is going to be Mahogany back and flame maple top. The neck and fingerboard will be unfinished Brazilian Rosewood. For that body shape / wood selection, which of the 2 vintage style pickups would you recommend from the DSV / SSV's? I would like the neck to have a warm, smooth, juicy tone that's full but not boomy or too mushy on the low end. I would like the bridge pickup to be warm, smooth, but with a bit more "bite" and spank to it.
I'm thinking of putting a SSV in the bridge and a DSV in the neck. Any comments or recommendations on those pickup choices for that guitar / wood? Where is the best place to get Suhr pickups? Indoor Storm I know does carry them. I would like to get them with chrome covers.
Thanks.
