SD SSL-5/6 vs Fender Deluxe Drive bridge pickup.

[Brucifer85]

Hello all.

Has anyone had the opportunity to do a comparison?

I have the Deluxe Drives in a Strat and was considering swopping the bridge pup for the SSL-5/6.

However I am wondering if it may be a pointless exercise if they are too similar.

Thanks!

I am actually not familiar with the Deluxe Drive pickups...what are the specs?

ive never played the deluxe drive pups so cant comment. i like the ssl6 in the bridge with 250k pots for a thick single coil tone that still has some of the stratty attack to it
