The only thing that looks unfortunate is that the new pickup route cuts completely through the center section, which is also the neck wood. If 4 string emgs (or any 4 string pickup) are smaller, then you will have to fill the gap, and then refinish? You can find the early 90's Tbirds on US ebay going for an average of $800-900 sometimes and thats with no mods. Trouble is getting them to ship to you.

Emg 4 and 5 string soap bar pickups are the same size....3.5 inches.
