    Nice! I think it's gonna come out great man!

    I know it's not my place to suggest...but if you go GFS for the other pickup, I think a RetroTron of sorts would sound really cool. Just my two cents though.

    Someone on here said when they opened up a dream 90 it was just a telecaster pickup under the cover.

    Looks like a cool project.

    What kind of tuners are going in the neck? Will it have the original Squire bridge?
