Has anyone ever done a Rickenbacker 360-style bound offset with a rounded, chambered top and binding on the belly side only? I feel like that would be incredible.

Thanks for the heads-up in the other thread Jake!
So here are my two double bound offsets.
Fender 2012 FSR 50th Anniversary Thinline Jaguar Made in Japan with Mastery Bridge & Vibrato, Aluminum pickguard and brushed steel plates by gdayj, Seymour Duncan P-Rails with brushed open chrome/German silver frames and TAD F-Amp-Style Knobs. This was seen here before already but in another status as far as I can remember...

Liquid THUNDER 2020 Rexter Custom Body, aged Firemist Silver nitro finish, matching headstock, a set slightly hotter grey bobbins Q-Pickups, mint guard from earlpilanz, Fender AVRI Vibrato with Staytrem Arm and Bridge, Cream Amp-style Knobs by Jagged Offset Electric Guitars/Blackstar Guitars UK (Reverb Shop) and a said to be Japanese aftermarket B&B neck that came stock with a bone nut. The rhythm circuit is just the slide switch and the volume knob, the other knob is a bass-cut - thanks to skeleton smith for the rhythm circuit parts.

Liquid Thunder is my personal description for the waves hitting the shore - and I wrote a Surf-Doom song about it for my band TENTACULA. And as aged firmist silver reminds me of sun-rays reflecting on the sea this was more than fitting - and it found its way on this CBS style headstock.

The amp behind is a Fender Super Sonic 60 with a Mojotone 1x15 cab.

That is VERY lovely. What's the P-90 in the neck?

Does it sound any different than a standard P-90? Higher output?

Lincoln Guitars have made something that fits that bill and it works as well as you'd hope it would.

Of all the offsets that Fender has put out recently this is the one type which they have missed.

Hope they rectify it soon.

Don’t like the neck so that will change sometime.

Staple pickups have square alnico magnets as polepieces, instead of the bar magnet and steel polepieces. The originals were closer to dynasonics than anything else, really, as the coils were similar in size and they even had an individual polepiece elevator mechanism like dynas.

Most modern recreations skip the elevator mechanism and unique rout required for it and just plop alnico poles into a P90 bobbin, which makes it sort of a fat Fender pickup with P90 geometry.
