Any ideas for warming up a Strat??

Hey!
I want my strat to be really WARM, with great both: clean&distortion tones, more "Gibsonish".. Which pickups should I use??

The Texas Hots are my favorite Duncan Strat pickups and have a slightly thicker, chunkier tone than most stock vintage style pickups. Great for blues, soul and SRV style guitar playing. GREAT PICKUPS...alot of folks here think of them as being the ultimate Strat pickup.

You could try the Alnico II Strat pickups. I have one in the bridge position of a Voodoo Strat, and they sound fantastic.

I'm afraid of the low output of alnico II's, because i play with Humbucker on bridge.. Is it really SO low?

The A2 sounds louder than the usual A5 pickup. I would use A2 in the bridge, and A5 in the mid/neck.
