Any recording of it at all? Would prefer to keep single coils in it really.

AVRI pups will definitely do the job as I can attest.

Basically everything about this guitar is working against your fat desire.
It's the CIJ pickups. They are pretty much Junk. When i had The 69 jag it had a duncan vintage style jag pickup in it, and it was beefy. QPs are great too.

I'll only swap out the stock p-ups as a last resort, all my guitars are stock, except a fishman acoustic pickup in my SG.
Maybe one of the Seymour Duncan pickup boosters would be good?
I see that youve already discovered you need to change the pickups. Good. I think a booster would just make your thin tinny pickups louder.

Do the Quater pounders come only in black. It would be nice if they was in White maybe?

they come in whatever colour cover you put on them.
i dunno if they supply them with covers. in all the pictures i can find from places selling them they're uncovered.

Just use the one that's on your pickup already.

I've decided on a quarter pounder, but they only come in black, and they do not use pickup covers, according to dolphinmusic.co.uk

With a bit of effort, it's not exactly an easy fit.

Maybe not slide in effortless, but not too difficult, it's not like jamming a JB Jr into a robroe.
