I FINALLY found the perfect Tele for me when I picked up this pawnshop rescue a few years back.

My ‘03 Anderson Hollow T Drop Top.

Probably right on the neck pickup, but all the bridge pickups I've seen on multiscale guitars follow the bridge

Oh come on, cut the headstock off this thing and you'd have 3 of them.
