SFX-01 and mini-buckers?

I've been reading about the SFX-01 Pickup Booster and it seems like it would serve my purposes well. It is best used with single-coil pickups; does this count for single-coil sized humbuckers as well? I'm thinking about putting a VR/CR/CR (or CR/VR/CR) set in my alder body strat and it would be sweet if the SFX-01 would work as well for these rail pickups as it does for single-coils. If not, what would some good replacement single-coils? I play mainly harder rock, through a Mesa Roadster, but I'm still a sucker for the neck strat sound.

Hi Alex; I'm not sure where you got the impression that it works best with single coils, but I love to use mine with 'buckers also. Its true that it does have an additional feature, (the resonance switch), thats intended for singles, but I like to use mine to fatten the bridge pup too. (The resonance switch, that is.)

Anyway, it should work great on single-sized 'buckers too.

yup. i dont think it works well with high output pups like a distortion since things tend to turn to mush if you put that much signal into an amp but i use it with buckers and i like what it does
