Hi
I know its been discused a little before but, looking for some help with mixing fender CS PUPS.
I have a Fender 62 Vintage reissue strat, its kind of been a problem guitar, trying to getting the sounds i want from it.
Its quite a middy sounding guitar, kind of a lower mids or upper bass emphasis, and i found the fiited 57/62 pups a little weak and kind of bland, so i stuck a set of CS 69 pups in, and found a slight improvememnt, clean tones and moderate overdrive are now pretty good, i especialy like the neck position, But looking for a little more focus especialy in higher gain situations.
So contemplating replacing the middle and bridge pickups with possibly Texas specials, but in view of the guitars already slightly middy nature, do you think a fat 50 in the middle, and a TX spec in the bridge may be a better choice?
I have other guitars with TX specials sets in and CS 69 sets, without issues, but i have never played the Fat 50s.
Thanks
