  • Need help choosing a middle and neck pickup for my Strat!

    I have decided to have a JB installed in the bridge position of my strat. I want to replace the single coil pickups in the middle and neck postion with hotter pickups. I am going for the H/S/S pickup configuration. My styles are rock and blues and some metal. Which pickups would be suitable in the middle and neck postion of my strat?

      Thanks. I did check out the vault and it did not help at all. I need some real answers and replies to my question.

          Hi
          I have a Hot Rails on my Strat in the bridge position, and a Duckbucker
          in the middle and neck position, this seems to be fine for me. Like yourself
          i play rock and blues, although to be honest i am changing the neck
          Duckbucker to a lil 59, which i will coil tap. This should be good for nice slow sustained lead lines! Also i have TBX tone control fitted.
          Hope this helps

            Thanks Trev for the advice. I was thinking of having the lil 59 in the neck too for some nice warm blues and the SSL3 in the middle.. It is also has good cleans. I will also coil tap the JB and the lil 59 and the SLL3 as well.
