Just completed this New (4-string) Model, which has Dual "Kent Armstrong" Mini-Humbuckers, along with a 3-way pickup selector switch. I also experimented with the new color, which is a close matchup with Fenders "Desert Sand" finish. In addition, I added the Figured Maple fretboard with the larger Banjo Sized frets as well. After being asked about going with a 2 pickup option, I decided on the Kent Armstrong Humbuckers. They have had alot of good reviews, and I found that they had a rather nice appearance on my style of Mando's. I have strategically placed them for the best tonal response possible, and worked out real well. I will also be offering my mando's. with a single Kent Armstrong Humbucker, as well as my standard EMG Select which is still a proven winner. This one will be going on the Classifieds with a (one time special price) real soon!
Thanks for looking,
John
