You can have it with a cream or mint scratchplate. Knob and 5-way switch covers supplied. Just solder the earth cable to the bridge and the socket and you're ready to go!!
Please note as of today the electronics have been improved with a toggle switch which gives you the option to split the pickups and also the option to engage the bridge pickup with the neck or the bridge pickup and the middle (see photo 3).

The Seymour Duncan APS-1 Alnico II Pro Strat Staggered Pickup Set consists of vintage-correct true single-coils. These pickups are recommended for country, pop, rockabilly, blues, surf, ska and classic rock. Players who have used pickups amongst the APS-1 family include CMarc Ford (Ben Harper & Black Crowes), Kevin Hunter (Shania Twain), Dale Oliver (Reba McIntire), Jeff Pevar (CPR).
Warm, Sweet Tone!
The APS-1's hand ground Alnico 2 magnets and moderate windings (Heavy Formvar® wire) help give a warm, sweet tone with more natural string vibration for great sustain. The APS-1 allows you to get more of your distortion from your amp rather than the pickup itself, so for example you can back off the crunch and get wonderful clean tones with softer attack. The APS-1 has a rounder sound with a spongier bass response, compared to the SSL-1. This pickup comes with a waxed cloth hookup cable and vintage-style "keyed" bottom plate.
Designed for Warmer Toned Ash, Alder or Basswood Bodies
The APS-1 is designed for warmer toned ash, alder or basswood body instruments and works with maple and rosewood fingerboards.
