holy crap is all I can say. Thanks for the suggestions on the pickups too guys. Here's what I did:
Ripped my Dimarzio stacked singles and Humbucker out of my Custom Ibanez S-series. Put in a little '59 neck, cool rails middle, and Distortion bridge. This thing rips now, it's like a new guitar, it can do just about everything. I wired all the buckers in series and put a coil split switch in. All these pickups sound amazing themselves and you can get major beef when combining two humbuckers, I don't use that really but it's neat to have. The lil 59 is not at all as muddy as I thought it would be, it's nice and warm, sounds great clean too, doesn't shine too much when split. The cool rails is one hell of a cool pickup, and split it has a really good single coil sound. The best part is when the coils are split and the 59 and cool rails are combined, sounds just like an awesome strat, quack and all.
only thing I might consider is putting a cool rails in the neck too to replace the '59, but I might not even mess with it because it sounds awesome. I'm just curious how the cool rails would be in the neck now.
Also, when I called my local store to see if they had another cool rails he told me they were all out and kind of hard to find because Duncan is changing the design of these pickups. Anyone know anything about this?
