Wiring questions for strat-style alembic pickups

[kingbiscuit]

got the pickups back all nice and wired right from the mothership and have spent the last few days getting it all back together.  had to make a few adjustments to get everything to fit to an acceptable standard.  good news is its working and sounds a lot better with the new pups, even with just 1 string, than the old cheapos ever did.  have to work tonight so no pics till i get a full set of strings on.

  Had Michael Dolan redrill the pickguard so the pups fit.  He also milled a nice plate for the jack cavity where the battery lives now.  found the knobs on the bay and may replace the bridge/trem with a gold plated version, but not for a while, looks pretty cool as is   thanks for all the help and for making this a fun project!  peace  paul

What a fantastic looking instrument. I'm sure those alembic pickups make it sing like is should.
 
Good to know there are some other Strat alembicians about.
I'm still waiting for Jaydee to finish putting mine back together after a major enhancement. Watch this space.
