I have them in my strat and love them, bridge in series neck parallel.

Mike Stern has Hot Rails in his Yamaha Tele.

Hot Rails as the product literature stresses out, is very sensitive and responsive to subtle picking movement, so when used with hi gain distortion it really facilitates the picking, the guitar's playability is significantly boosted.

Hey I've been spamming the hots of the hot rails for years

No doubt they are not loved by the Strat sound crowd. I can totally see how those guys love the Cool Rails way more.

But That ain't me! I want the rock, and the Hot Rails brings it!

Another HotRails lover here! Got one in the bridge of my Warmoth Strat, it sings so beautifully!

Really? I didn't care for it in my telecaster. It lacked clarity to my ears and I didn't find the split sound very convincing.

If you must get hard rock sounds out of a Strat the HR is a killer pickup. I find the bridge to be dark, but that can be tweaked with pot values/wiring options. One of my absolute favorite combos is a hot rails in the neck and a JB in the bridge of a Strat. They sound like they were voiced to be a matched set.

I love me some Hot Rails! It rocks hard! In fact, I dig the whole Rails lineup. I got a Hot/Vintage/Cool Rails set in my Fender Lite Ash Strat...
