I'm from 1934 and didn't realize that you could have more than one pickup in a guitar. Pretty sure that's never been done before; surely it would be prohibitively expensive?
Got a couple that can qualify!
Got a Esquire inspired build, started as a Hosco tele body that I reshaped and finished. Went through some iterations but now it has an Area Hot T for a pup with a volume pot, Q-filter pot, and “cocked wah” mini toggle. I also sanded back the stain to create a faux binding. Warmoth one piece rosewood neck.
Also recently redid my Slick SL 59 (originally sunburst). Again, reshaped the body and refinished it myself. Currently has a GFS mini humbucker to a volume pot. Simple rock machine
One more for now…Warmoth Rosewood semi hollow tele with a Gibson Classic 57 wired to a volume pot. Great pickup, lots of tonal variation for such a simple set up

1968 Fender Bronco that I found in sad, unplayable condition in a pawnshop. Original parts, paint sanded off by someone, bridge parts assembled wrong.
Now well setup and awesome player. Still a few minor details to get to eventually.

2019 Inspired by Gibson, Epiphone Les Paul Jr.
This one is exceptionally good after I did a thorough setup. I got to compare it to a very good example of a real 50’s Gibson Les Paul Jr.
They guy who owned the Gibson Jr. could not believe how good this one is.

When I heard they were going to reissue these, I put the order in, without even knowing the price. I wanted one of the first available in Canada. The as arrived setup was horrible. It is awesome to play now.

That's a lot of single pickup guitars. Are you a cyclops?

My 1986 Kramer Ferrington KFT2.
Single piezoelectric pickup beneath the bridge.
(I know. I cheated. But I love this old guitar. My mom and brother bought it for me brand new in 1986, for my birthday that year.)
