As of now, I feel fairly confident I can do it. I have to see if the original pickguard can be modded and still have the screw holes for the bridge pickup be in the right spot. A quick holding a humbucker up, seems possible but I’ll have to take the pickguard off and look underneath too.PTC really did a great job on that for me...I really like the full size 408 in bridge with the NF neck and middle...not to mention the 3 minitoggles they added (split bridge, add bridge and “blower”). I’m fine with a little light soldering, but routing and making a custom pickguard are a little outside my skill set.
I’ve got an old strat pickguard I can practice on and scrap wood, even an old crappy guitar body, I can screw around with. We’ll see.
