Re: cool rails for strat
I was also thinking about hot rails at the bridge ,but I'm worried about that distortion taking over.
P.s distortion is O.k when I want it. But I rather use a pedal or another channel on my amp. I'm really looking for natural sustain!
Thanx for your input, I think I'm gonna for for it.LesStrat said:

The HR is VERY hot. And in many guitars it has a tendency to distort at high guitar volumes (e.g., 8-10). It's probably not a good shredders pup because it's output can be perceived as "muddy" at times. Works well for standard, single-note lead lines, though. I like it, but it might not do what you are looking for (It doesn't usually distort right away in my axe). The CR is pretty hot as well, but it isn't as prone to distorting and might do what you want. Maybe try one before installing in both positions. SD has an open return policy, BTW.

As you can see from my signature I have a cool rails in the middle....I find it clean and bright when played on the clean channel....With gain it has nice sustain....I got the cool rails to replace a lace sensor and I like it better....I do have active electronics though....That is different...........
