Does this make sense?

I would say no. That bridge P will be next to useless other than to add the thinnest of flavours to something else. I built this a few years ago, interesting experiment but, in the end, there wasn't really anything in it I couldn't get close enough to from the likes of a L2000. 

 

Unless, of course, you're just playing solo in the bedroom and are feverously chasing microtonal changes. In a mix, nobody will notice how clever your pickup choices are 😄

It's missing one more pickup and some LEDs...

No, shoving a plectrum into the scratchplate like that is bound to stress it around the neck end screw and may break it.

Just needs a Mudbucker at the bottom of the neck and it'll be perfect! 🤔

Ibanez Blazer & a lot of vintage PAF-stickered DiMarzios!

 

Hard to understand what the thinking behind that would be, particularly the P unit right up at the bridge - you'd think you'd at least reverse it so the D & G strings don't just go "plink".

Might work rather well, I doubt you'd ever use the bridge P-PUP soloed but it might blend very nicely with one or more of the others. If it were for sale at a decent price I'd certainly give it a go, especially as it appears to be wearing a bunch of cream Dimarzios, defo my fave PUPs, the colour has a huge effect on tone
