So can somebody help me out? I just got a Fender Classic 60's strat, and was thinking about getting some duncans to go in it. The stock pickups are good and sound basically kuje what I want, so I was thinking SSL-1's, I would like some more umph in the bridge, I dont like the volume...

Hey dudes. I finally got a ibanez TS-9 tubescreamer, in all its ugly, snot-green glory. So I already discovered that it improves my u-vibe sound infinitely for some reason, but could you guys drop me some user tips, settings, whatever else? Thanks
