"could be it is strung with 16s [BEADGB] though..."
naw, it's gotta be the pickups
the thing you've gotta watch out for with Dynasonics is that they require a DEEP pickup cavity; they're typically seen on archtop hollowbodies. they have a huge, spring-loaded adjustment system for the magnetized polepieces and are so deep that they'd probably stick out the back of an SG.

FIFTY YEARS OF SCARING THE CHILDREN 1970-2020--and i'm not done yet
The Janglin' V's would be a great name for a group!! Dano lipsticks can sound very jangly and are less expensive and easier to work w/ than Rickie pickups.
Update 'n stuff.... Elwood would not take no for a answer so I am trying his idea also I haz a lipstick so thought atm will be a combo there of... the neck I got for this body is black [it is a V neck so this one will not look strange...] and the body is blue so the project name is Blank'n'Blue Jangle-V
I'll move the pups around to see what sound good and if they will work before deciding on if it needs a pg or something...
Man, that V is sweet looking! Your question got me thinking... It reminded me that I'd thrown a contact mic on the metal tailpiece of my Stratotone one day, and that was the jangliest tone to come out of my guitars I do believe. So just throw you an ashtray tailpiece over that bridge PU and slap a contact mic on it and get after it!
Zombie thread is brains!
No I did not drop this project
Trids a few pickups but the these old godins do what I want I really like the sound of them.. I wish I knew what they were… anyway...
