GE Smith talking about his telecaster and mentions he has found screwing the pickup directly into the wood makes the sound fatter. EVH also likes his pickups mounted this way.

Looks like a cool guitar. I always enjoyed GE Smith's playing.

LOL! It's actually the ones who look like an insurance salesman that are the axe murders and the child rapists.
