That's it! That's the one! Some of them had a completely fucking retarded pick guard - like instead of laying flat it was just like the stupid shit you get on a Les Paul - the one that sticks out at the bottom. I have no fucking idea why.
And, I kinda like the color of the one you linked to. I should buy it - except I stopped buying guitars while drunk. No... No... I refuse to buy a guitar while drunk. Trust me, it's a good limit to have.
Why the hell would you pain the pickups? I'm gonna ignore the cutting holes into it part for now - 'cause I'm pretty sure I've tried to get a good answer out of you for that one already.
Mine is that very color, and I painted them black, that yellow just looks hideous to me. I painted them with one of those little bottles of model car paint back in 1983 and it's still on there. Well except where I carved 'sexy' into the paint for some reason. LoL
The holes are there because I wanted them there. LoL I have a snake that loops through them and it's tail hangs out a ways at the end and it's head is just under my hand by the bridge and it sparkles and swings and it looks like no other guitar ever! I think it's cool. That's all that I need. I don't care about it being in original condition cause my improvements make it even ,more original! LoL
Huh... It's an attractive color. I kinda like the 'cream' colored pickups.
The good news is that the paint didn't harm much. The important bits should be fine.
As for the holes and snake - I think the important question is one you already answered. Do you like it? You do! That's the important thing.
I do like it. I like it a lot. I like the pickups too, i like them better black
