Need advice on pus set

[vodok]

I own a MIM fender stratocaster, with a h/s/s config. I want to have a versatile sound, BUT with a sweeter tone, not so twangy... What do you guys recomend? Im open to all ideas. The pus must be seymour. Thanks
Ps: poplar body, rosewood neck

For bright, glassy vintage tone and the big, full bass response of vintage 50's & 60's Strat pickups go with alnico 5 SSL-1's for the neck and middle and a 59B Trembucker for the bridge.

For a warmer, sweeter, chunkier tone go for alnico 2 Antiquity Texas Hots ( or APS1's ) for the neck and middle and I'd still say a 59 Trembucker for the bridge pickup.

59b is a winner.

if you are looking for additional drive (which I have to admit, I am not fond of, 59 or a PG+ does a great job in that regard) check c5's as well.
