...and it sounds amazing! Better than I expected. It is a very versatile pickup, to all who are wondering. Removing the old solder on my volume pot for my ground wires was a pain. I don't think my soldering iron (weller 25 watt) is hot enough. I ended up just taking wire cutters to get the old pickup's ground wire off. But other than that the installation went well. I'm going to fine tune the pole peices tomorrow and get it all balanced. But thanks to all who recommended the 59. My strat has never sounded better!

Lil 59's are cool. I was surprised by how much the one I had sounded like its big brother.
