Hello,
I just put in a set of keystones in my strat and they are cool. I see now why people like strats! For a long time I used only humbuckers and had that strat franked out to a metal machine not to long ago, but these singles are hard to beat at 76 bucks for all three! Playing singles though is totally different! They respond so differently than my humbuckers, although my XL500 is close in responsiveness as is (in a different way) the 59. I also see where all the description of A2 being soft and sweet on the highs. I was so worried I wouldn't like a bridge strat single pickup, but it is pretty sweet! Especially on the high notes... very fat and not ice picky! I may have to try an A2 Humbucker soon in another guitar... my only dislike is the somewhat flabby low end, but all singles I have played do that so maybe an A2 bucker would be tighter. It is funny, me being a mostly metal humbucker dude, playing a strat with high gain and metal! I tried it as I had too, almost pulled it off too...:werd:
