Help Me Decide My Strat Pickup Arrangement

[Jeff_H]

Ok....the guitar is a swamp ash strat, maple/maple board that KMC just finished for me in a translucent white finish (pics later).

I have two staggered APS singles for the neck and mid (RWRP) or a set of vintage flats (RWRP as well).

For the bridge I have a Twangbanger or an Antiquity Texas Custom Hot. I'm leaning towards the Twangbanger APS set, but give me your opinions. This will be my true "vintage" sounding guitar, for blues and blues based rock that calls for a single coil tone...Hendrix, Floyd...ect. I've got plenty of LP's and other guitars for humbucker rock.

Let the opinions fly!

I would go with the staggered APS's and the Twangbanger all day long!

+1 I have APS's in the Neck of all my Strat's. You already know I like the Twangbang-Her.:laugh2:

APS's and Texas Hot. I've never played a TB, but the Custom Texas Hot has a cool grind when driven and has a pretty good notch tone, which is essential in a strat, IMHO.

Too bad you don't wanna bucker-then the obvious choice would be a dirty finger.
