I recently picked up a 2003 Squier Affinity Strat that the previous owner basically gutted and upgraded everything except the body, neck and pickguard. He even re-wired it and put copper shielding in.
He put Fender Tex-Mex strat pickups in it with CTS 250k pots, so I’ve got a couple questions.
Does anyone have experience with these pickups? Are the neck and middle pickups any good?
I’m thinking i’ll keep those pickups, but swap the bridge out with a Lil 59, a Cool Rails, or a Red Devil. Which of those pickups do you all think would be most evenly matched in terms of output? The Tex-Mex pickups come in at around 6.4-6.5k ohms and 2.75 henries and have A5 magnets.
