JUST ONE CORRNEETTOOOO (Sorry, I mean pickup, just one pickup)

[Jonesie]

No single pickup guitars here (unless a P-Bass counts) but had to jump in with this:

Oh, and I'll see your Shaun of the Dead and raise you a Hot Fuzz...

One of my cats names is Sgt. Nicholas Angel, so I appreciate this very much.

That's all I got. I'm more of a two pickup person, although I use the bridge pickup like 97% of the time.

My one and only (for the moment) - Squier Classic Vibe '60s Custom Esquire with a Fender CS Texas Special bridge pickup and cream pickguard I got off of Amazon. My overhead lights make it brighter than it is, so I added a natural light one, too.

This thread has motivated me for a future single pickup build.

[BoringPostcards]

I've just got one too - Godin Kingpin.



It is a very, very nice guitar. I should play it more.

Those are awesome guitars. I had one without a pickup. Wish I had kept it.

Cheers, yes, they just seem to have thought about each bit of it really carefully and done the right thing.

Plus it makes fantastic woofy feedback noises with a bit of gain!

Cornetto the ice cream? We have that as well… but I‘m slightly too young for that specific ad.


There is an EKO CO1 (one just like this) for sale in Austria for - I think they look awesome but could use a small (or big) black pickguard.

ooo I used to have the 2 pickup version, definitely one of the best guitars I've ever had. Unfortunately had to sell it long time ago.
Here's a quick demo I made with it
but my all time fav single pickup guitar is my Telecaster style guitar called "T-plank" made by amazing czech luthier Ondrej Vlk (The Wolf Guitars)

It came with this "pearl white" finish that yellowed over time and I decided to decorate it with an ukranian flag when the war started - imo looks much better.

The sole pickup in it is Tuma Pickups Wide Range in a p90 form - I had chance to A/B it with OG '74 Thinline with original WRHBs and it was amazingly close!

I used it a lot in the studio, it can be heard most prominently in this song - the T-plank is panned to the left.

I was bummed to not find the pink one when I was looking for one myself, so I bought the black one !



It has tapewounds strings and an AliExpress Special rail humbucker, sounds ok and is an absolute joy to play. I put on some white strat knobs since.

I miss that blue baritone Partscaster:



A favourite of mine :



...and here's something unusual, a Frankenstein with a sitar bridge and 5 strings, tuned ebebe:

Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately for my pocket, Kauer Guitars don't make this model anymore



Something like this is on my build list for the future

Turns out I'm about 10 years too young to remember that particular advert but I still remember it.... and I don't know why. Unless they brought it back some time in the mid-late nineties for when I was a young, properly sentient and impressionable child.

Anyway, here are my 3 single pickup guitars:

What's the headless on the right?

Crying out for cream guard(s) and truss rod cover, to be sure!

They ran it for about 20 years I think, with the same theme song (or variants of) so I don't doubt you heard it on the TV in the 90s

I did consider other colours but the binding is white and I like the cohesiveness of the tuxedo look.

I was just riffing on the Guiness harp. Black with white is of course the best colour scheme for Rickenbackers.

I got that. The reason the harp is on there is because it reminds me of a pint of Guinness - and it's my go-to drink anywhere that does a decent pint of it.
