Back around 1980 I 'designed' what I thought was the perfect solidbody:

Double-cut Junior shape
Neck-though body or deep tenon
Tele bridge or hardtail Strat bridge, strings through the back
Tele bridge pickup
Humbucker neck pickup with splitter

Might have been neck-heavy (a deal-killer for me) but it sounded great on paper! :biggrin:

That being said, I'm pretty much an Esquire/Tele and Les Paul guy. My 'desert island' guitar for many years was a certain '56 Esquire.
