Per Fretted Americana here's the story of this guitar:In December 2012 Yamaha produced the Phil X signature model SG1801PX. Only 12 limited edition models were made (all sold) feature some unique features.  Fitted in the bridge position was a single Arcane PX90 pickup, even though there was only one pickup fitted in the the guitar, it is still routed for a neck pickup, selector switch and full set of tone knobs.  Phil insisted on this because even though the components aren't fitted he believes the cavities for them still have an effect on tone.  The one-pickup design also adds an effect on tone per Phil as the pull from the magnets on the neck pickup aren't there. The headstock features Phil's signature and at the 12th fret an X logo hails for the Man himself!  Each model has the neck pickup replaced with the pickup base plate in the cavity...one of Phil's guitars (see video) had a hand-carved figure of Dirty Sanchez by Stephen McSwain :-)Features...BODY: Mahogany with Maple Cap NECK: Mahogany with Rosewood fingerboard SCALE: 24 3/4 NUT: 1 11/16
