Any other special electronics in that thing? Cause if not, you should seriously consider a 4-way tele switch for both pups in series and a push/pull knob for phase reversal. Open the thing up!

Actually, 100% of them do. But they're all made of different woods and have different pickups so they sound pretty different to me.
I DO plan to branch out, but this is the first guitar I've ever had custom-built specifically for me. I want it to be able to do everything I need a guitar to do, and for that I need a humbucker in the bridge.
If this guitar turns out as good as I think it will, I might sell off some others and get him to make me a Jazzmaster style guitar with 3 P90s and a 5-way switch.

Hah, good luck getting Creston to do anything that fancy! Dude doesn't even like six-saddle bridges. He's kind of cranky about what he will and won't build, which I found great because it means he actually cares about what he's doing.

Also, you have to ground the pickup covers separately from the pickups themselves
-500K Push/Pull knob
-4-way switch
For $25, I'm just saying. Soldering aint all that hard. Of course don't do it to the nice new custom job. Get one of those axes you're planing on selling and do this to it first.
