Hey,
I have a Tom Delonge Strat I got about 17 years ago and I recently started to try improve it with a few mods. Added Kluson locking tuners, got a couple of cheap Iron Gear overwound single coils in mid and neck and added a tone pot.
I was looking at upgrading the mid and neck pickups to something a bit better but wasnt really too sure on the best way to go.
I'm stuck in between decent single coils or a single coil style humbucker. I was looking at the Custom staggered or the Five two but I have a feeling these will be over powered by the Invader in the bridge. Has anyone any experience with trying to match the Invader up with stuff.
I go through these phases where I think my guitar is exceptionally heavy on the bass side and it's hard to tell if its the pickups or the guitar itself. I use 10-52 gauge strings.
I also had a look at some Dimarzio rails, Chopper in mid and BC1 in neck maybe. But I do like the option of that bluesy single coil neck sound.
Any help or recommendations would be great if anyone has any knowledge on the topic.
Thanks
