Yes, David (post #9 above),
Classic 57 humbuckers (and twenty four frets, meaning that there is no tenon cover between the extended fretboard and the neck pickup). Ebony fretboard, Grover tuners - all the Custom appointments except for gold-plating (it's nickel-plated).
Amazingly, given my exacting requirements in the department, it was set up near-perfectly. It just needed the polepieces tweaked for balance.
Hope to try it out tomorrow night at the Billabong (which is just south of the car-park in the middle of this satellite image: http://tinyurl.com/ll9yzp).
The premises have a long history, originally being part of the basement of the Star Music Hall in Star Hill, which was later the Rochester Conservative Club. It is now operated as a function room (the ex-theatre part, upstairs), with the basement bar (reached at ground level from Victoria Street) being operated as a separate music watering hole.
Best wishes,
JN
