Going to replace the singles in my HSS strat

[Kac]

I plan on changing the single coils in my H/S/S Fender HM Strat
They're fender pups now, I'm thinkin' about installing SSL-5's

Would it be ok to put in 2 pups with the same polarity, or should one of 'em be rwrp?

I don't usually us positions 2 or 4 on my 5 way switch... but SOMETIMES I do...

I put a set of Fender Custom Shop 54's in my Strat, and the middle is not RWRP. I shielded the cavity and put a callaham aluminum pickguard shield underneath, and have no hum issues at all. Original strat pups were not RWRP, so I think it will be fine.

I'd get one RW/RP so you can have humcancelling when the neck and middle pickups are combined.
