NBD - Fender Custom Shop

I think there's a couple of thousands difference, but less noticeable in person. The CS pickup fits in the opening better than the dimarzio.

I've got a 2011 Closet Classic P Pro which yours looks like a custom variation on and my J pup routing gives that illusion too - because the pup is slightly raised higher on the DG strings. Only slightly, but enough to create that little shadow in pix.
