Hi guys!

I am going to come up with my first EP this month, and my guitar wiring is rusty, the volume pot became an on/off switch if you get it. I bought a new pickguard, pots and new wires, so I guess why not buy a new pickup too?

Basically the guitar is a strat with alder body, maple neck and fretboard. I will only be using the bridge pickup, but theres one song that i will be using the neck for clean. I want a raw sounding, twangy crispy pickup for the bridge especially when playing a chord. I dont have a specific brand in mind. What do you guys recommend? Heres a clip of my demo to give an idea;

Thanks!

Pretty crisp to my ears (I generally prefer a warmer tone), maybe not so crisp to your ears (you like very bright toned pups).

Dang, forgot to say that its both single coil for bridge and neck, sorry and thank you for the response!
