I'd heard that it was Brent Mason who was first (or best known) user of a Strat pickup in the middle. Of course I think he was also using some type of Gibson mini hummer in the neck.
Appartently lots of Nashville session guys followed Brent's lead. A former luthier friend of mine told me that back in those days he butchered tons of classic Telecasters to do the 'Brent Mason' mod.
Shame that Fender couldn't work something out with Brent and it would have been a 'Brent Mason' model.
I'm sure that Blue Water Girl could fill in lots of details.
