Actually, if that was my guitar I would go off the deep end.
I would install 4 Motherbuckers. Then it would basicly have 16 humbuckers in it! BEYAH! w

the pick-ups spaced that close together they'd all sound the same, only ones that'd be different is the bridge and neck, the 2 in the middle would sound identical.

lol and its a hollow body, and by putting in 4 pickups its probly not much of a toned semi hollow body, they probly take up alot of space....especially the pots and what not and the input hole

4 humbuckers = too many.

Really wouldn't be worth the effort of making to me.  Also since it's semi-hollow why didn't they just put in a piezo?  It would have a noticeable (and positive) tone difference from all those humbuckers.

Sweet Hot-Rod guitar. It looks like it could shoot flames from the chrome header.  2thumbsups

I like how it has all the notes on the fretboard so no matter how... disoriented the player may be, s/he can still find the right spot on the neck.

This topic reminded me of the old Hamer Prototype (that was the actual model name, which is kinda confusing) which had a 3-coil bridge pickup:
