Hilarious movie aside, in School of Rock's beginning, Jack Black's band is playing a song and the singer (Adam Pascal from 'Rent') is playing what looks like just some sort of relic'd LP Standard, a sort of tri-color burst almost, maybe Desert Burst?

Anyways, saw the movie the other day and I could have sworn the pickups looked like mini-hum's... It's driving me nuts, does anyone else see it?

Not the greatest quality video, but if you have the movie, please double check and confirm/reject my suspicions.

Not a big deal, but it's just driving me crazy here! 60s LP deluxe?!

normall humbucker and an ABR bridge. So no a modern standard though. The tuner buttons look kinda aberish too...

Maybe an early classic?
