Hot Chicken Strat neck folow up

[strat dude]

If anyone is interested in the Hot Chicken . After a month or two with the Hot Chicken neck pup matched up with the YJM Fury bridge pickup in one of my science experiments I can say I really dig it. Finally got around to measuring DCR too, the battery in my multi meter was dead and its an odd one so I kept forgetting to grab one. Any how being of the old teck construction like the YJM it clocks in at 20K or so. but it matches up really well with the Fury b (25K), I wanted just a bit less than the YJM neck and it is just what I was hoping for. I had a Vintage Noiseless in the neck of this guitar for a while and actually liked it there but it now resides in the middle and pairs up nicely with the HC and the YJM and the quack is there in 2 and 4. Other than looking off from the other two, but its a science experiment.
I have gone through quite a few other "Noiseless" pickups in a few other giutars, but keep picking this one up. And this set up is able to cover a lot of ground, very versatile. Maybe not great for chugga chugga stuff though.

Other Strats with Lace, SD- STK's, DDimarzio HS, Area, injector, cool rails , Lil 59. But I keep picking this one up as this combo is getting it done for me.

can you compare/contrast the neck pups youve tried in that guitar?

Very cool! I can't say I've seen many reviews of that pickup yet, so I appreciate it!

I picked the body up off local CL 10 or so years ago and it was blue. It looks like I had a Muy Grande in the bridge, and I can't be sure but it probably had some plastic bobbin Am St strat a 5's in it.

This was just after I learned the Clifs of Dover intro, did not quite have it down yet. But I do remember liking the Muy Grande, but it was very noisy.

then it was purple for a while. For some reason I can't find a better pic but it looks like I had the Lil 59 in the bridge and probably sone regular singles in the other spots. also a different neck.

While it was purple I had a couple TV classics in it for a while, but it just didn't quite hit the mark.
This is a vid where it had a SD vintage stack for Tele pup in it. Nice and I love that pickup but more so in a Tele.

Here it a Crap vid of a quick comparrison between the vintage noiseless and the HC neck. I had the levels jacked so it is pretty bad. I actaully might like the VN a bit better for cleans and Hendrix/ SRV stuff. But the HC is dominant for rock and solo with didtortion.

I Guess the only thing to add is these pups are not coming out. The only thing I could see doing is getting another HC for the middle.
