Thinking of doing up a triple humbucker strat pickguard. Anyone here have 3 full size buckers in their strat?
I already have 2 out of the 3 pickups for this setup: a Pearly Gates neck pickup and a Screamin' Demon trembucker for the bridge. Now I just need to pick a middle humbucker. Any recommendations?
I'm leaning towards a Dimarzio PAF Pro-- my thinking is that I should go with something not too hot since I'm getting further away from the bridge position. Plus, lower output should sound better if I do a 5-way strat switch and don't split any coils when combining with the neck or bridge humbucker. But I don't want to go with a single coil in the middle (or a single sized bucker)-- I'm kind of digging on the "triple full-size humbucker assault" look.
