I did a little pickup work on an old Kramer and a mongrel strat today.
The strat has a 5 way set up with Vai style HSH wiring. Neck is a Dimarzio Fast Track 1, Middle is a Suhr V60LP and the bridge is a Duncan Custom Custom, my favourite hot humbucker of all time. The Fast Track 1 is an underrated pickup, it is like a really hot strat pickup....it is a humbucker but has a single coil sting with the punch of a humbucker. Absolutely killer guitar, right now it is my main squeeze.
Kramer now has a Duncan JB jr neck in the neck, a Suhr in the middle and a Suhr Aldrich in the bridge. I have it wired up without the middle pickup on a 5 way super switch, I get the neck, outside singles of each pickup in series, both humbuckers in series, inside coils in series and the bridge humbucker. The combo of a 17.5k bridge and a 9.6K neck pickup (the JB jr has neck and bridge models, the neck sounds like a full sized humbucker and splits really well) makes for a flamethrower of a guitar. The Floyd Rose is from the same year as the guitar, 83 and has one of the Floyd Upgrade brass blocks.
Great guitars, they are the ones that go to jams and gigs.
