Strat Pups for Derek and the Dominos tone?

[baba o'riley]

I have replaced all my humbuckers with different duncans and have always been more than satisfied. Now I want to change the pups in one my main axes. What 3 singles would you guys recommend to get that tone, well close to that tone, that EC got on Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs. I got a sunburst standard strat, maple neck. I've been considering kinmans or Antiquity II Surfers . I've also heard some talk about some new duncans coming out soon that I should wait for.
Would love to hear opinions, thanks.

I have a set of Duncan Antiquities (series 1) in a 1993 Fender Strat Plus and am very happy with them.

Bareknuckle pickups make a Strat pickup called 'Slowhand', which is based after Claptons vintage Strat tone.

I would agree and SSl-1's will do a good job for the budget minded. (Check my sig)

a friend of mine has a '56 relic with surfers, plug that into his victoria 518/12 and it sounds like the album come to life. the normal (low) output bridge pup is closer to what clapton had but id go for the custom (hotter) version

ive really been into that album lately. i found a copy of the un-remastered layla and the seperation between instruments is much better. why they messed it up i have no idea
