Fender Strat Advice

[curiousparent]

Simple question - if I was to upgrade the pick ups on a Fender Stratocaster what would you guys suggest. It's nothing fancy at the moment - bought it second hand it is a 90's guitar made in USA.

The guitar is used for rock with a little melodic thrown in from time to time.

I'd recommend the reviews - especially vintage strat pickups - in the Vault Section ...
that will give you a great over view

A set of Duncan SSL-1 is the BEST bang for the buck to upgrade a strat. Search for a thread about the ultimate strat tone, it was done by Lewguitar and will answer a ton of questions about Strat pickups.
