Hi All,
Been seriously considering converting my Mexican Strat back from SSS to HSS. I converted it to SSS with SSL1s a few years ago and while I love the neck and middle pickups, for the style of music I typically play (rock) I think I would play this guitar more if I had a full humbucker in the bridge again. I'd initially planned on replacing the bridge pickup with a Custom Custom but I'm worried that pickup might be too hot for the SSL1s, and that a 78 might be a better match. I primarily play through Marshall style amps (right now a Friedman JJ Jr through either an Ox and monitors or through a 1x12 with a 25 watt Greenback) and plan on wiring it with a bridge tone pot, and push/pull pot to turn the neck pickup on if it makes a difference.
I'm curious if anyone has any experience with either the 78 or Custom Custom paired with SSL1s and what their thoughts are.
Thanks!
