so I thought about adding a MFD humbucker pickup to bridge position of my Tribby S-500.
Of course I have to cut the pickguard accordingly, but I am not sure of the F-100 dimensions, or if it fits at all. It seems not a "normal" sized HB..
Do you have any info/experience doing this?
Thanks!

Hope this helps.

Such a waste...

Had to cut a pickguard from scratch, routing the HB hole to fit. Also because the pickup screws are to be screwed directly in the body, there wasn't enough wood to screw it on the right side (end of bathtub cavity) had to fill that gap with some piece of wood glued to the sides of the control cavity. No big problem, it's well secured.
Also, a switched volume pot for bridge+neck combo, and a 3-way toggle switch for series-parallel-split of the HB.
BTW, when in split coil mode, the HB doesn't lose volume, almost at all. So it really feels like a pure single-coil MFD (which it really is...), and in series mode oh god... so much punch!! Really!!
But best of all is on parallel mode. All the chime and punch. Beautiful!! Just beautiful!!!
This thing now is a f*** rock monster!!!
And yes, it's a really dark blueburst you see there.
