SUB question... again.

[Chris C]

I'm planning on getting a Sterling 5 when they come out (assuming I like them, of course!). So for now, I want to just get a SUB 5 and save the extra $$$. My questions are:

* Is the PU wired in parallel on the SUB 5?
* Does anyone make a repalcement pickguard for the SUB 5?

Thanks.
