      I just wanted to update on my side. After studying still shots and messing with pickup height, I found that 4.4mm on the bass side and 4mm on the treble side to be the closest to JF warm,sparkle sound that I've wanted. Also have the overdrive or booster pedal set right before the breakage. I'm very happy with it and hope I have helped somebody out there !

        To me, they're simply the pickups that all other SCs are compared against
        +1

        I have owned SSL-1's and whenever somebody comes along asking for vintage Strat tone I always have to suggest the SSL-1's. The first Duncan I ever bought was a Custom Custom for a Strat. About a year later I ordered an SSL-1 and a STK-S4 for that same Strat. I still use and love the STK-S4 but if I had a Strat playable right now (it's in parts at the moment) that SSL-1 would be in there and I might even consider making it a SSL-1 set for the whole guitar. I love the SSL-1's, as PF said, very underrated pickups.

                  I don't like his playing nor his tone. He has technique, yes, but no soul. Plain boring. The one shredder I respect most is Malmsteen. Besides, Petrucci uses Dimarzios, which are inferior to Duncans ;-)

                    I'm not a big fan of Petrucci.

                    It's just that that image is the perfect response.

                      He has a better technique, yes, but that doesn't mean he's a better guitarist.

                          Blabla, this is getting seriously offtopic. I'm not impressed by Frusciante, although RHCP have some really enjoyable tunes. I despise anything jazz and I don't like Petrucci.

                          I do love Dave Murray, Slash and a fair bit of Malmsteen though And many others.

                          Please stop trolling, troll

                            Tell me just what are you doing by slagging Frusciante?

                            That's some gall you got to dish it but not take them to accuse me of being a troll when I'm not the slagging people.

                              As in 'Cokekolev jealously defended his anti Frusciante stance', & being an adverb not a noun it would not be prefixed with an 'a'

                                Yikes. That's a bold statement and very much not true. Not even close to being true.
