Very cool! Fred "Sonic" Smith, who is my favorite guitar player was known to play a 450 but fitted with Gibson PAF pickups for some reason.
Very cool guitar. Hope to snag one someday
Those early Rics had really weak pickups which is probably why there are humbuckers. He also played a Mosrite in the MC5
