If you're on a budget, then the SSL-1's are great. You get what you pay for, so if you can afford the Surfers, go for it. If not, then you won't go far wrong with the SSL-1's.

That's right. Actually, you won't go wrong at all with the SSL-1's. But the Surfers are a little better...they're even better than the original pickups in my old '63 Strat. Lew

So far I have a 56 CS Relic Strat middle pup. Plan to get an EJ bridge pup. What's a good neck match for this combination? Thanks guys.

Either a Fat 50's or 69. I'd stick with all Fender, if you're piecing them together. You may want to talk to guys on the Fender Forum and ask if the wind direction/polarity is uniform on all those pickups, before you buy the next 2.
And make sure your 56 is rw/rp.
