    Why we say this

    Charvel list a direct-mount Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 in the bridge of the Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HH FR E (2965801503), so this is the same pickup the guitar ships with. Duncan make Trembuckers with 52.6mm pole spacing for Floyd Rose and other tremolo bridges, on slightly larger bobbins and baseplate than a standard humbucker, so a like-for-like Trembucker is the safe choice for this route rather than a standard-spaced SH-4. The stock pickups are screwed straight into the body, so reuse the existing mounting screws and springs. Four-conductor cable, so the coil split on the volume knob keeps working.

    Soldering

    The same bridge pickup this guitar ships with, in black rather than the stock parchment. Fits the existing direct-mount route. You will need to solder it in.

    Why we say this

    Charvel list a direct-mount Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 in the bridge of the Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HSS HT M (2965063576), so this is the same pickup model the guitar ships with. Charvel fit it in parchment on this model; this record is the black version, which only changes the look. Duncan make Trembuckers with 52.6mm pole spacing on slightly larger bobbins and baseplate than a standard humbucker, so a like-for-like Trembucker is the safe choice for this route. Reuse the existing mounting screws and springs. Four-conductor cable, so the coil split positions on the five-way switch keep working.
