    That look's like a nice garage dolly. Do you have anymore pics of it?

    So I guess people just put the pickups where ever they feel they look good. No reasoning behind it, is that correct?
    Looking at Marc's, I'd say those are about 10-12 off center. And even with the pads, so about 1.5 - 2.0 from the end of the plate.
    That Prime Schiada looks about the same also.

    Mine are half way between the inner most turn buckles and the next ones out, and even with the turn buckle pads.

    So about the same then? So maybe we can say midway between the inner strake and the outer edge of the prop for both sides? I wouldn't think you'd want them directly behind either.

    My Spectra is about 9" of center. I'll double check tomorrow.
