I like the JB.
Want something else than SD? Nothing beats EMG for that, IMO.

Re: Super Strat pickup
I have a guitar that is those specs, and found out something miraculous. I tried tons of Duncans, like the C-5, CC, Custom, 59, and always felt something wasn't good enough.
Then, by luck, I decided to pull out 1 of my Gibson 498T's, which I didn't like in my Les Pauls. I pulled it from my junk drawer, and installed it into my Basswood G&L Legacy Deluxe, and voila, there it was! A pickup I normally passed on was the perfect match for that wood! And the polepieces actually lined up pretty well. There's a zillion guys here with 498T's they wouldn't mind unloading for cheap.

How come everyone always forgets about the Duncan Full Shred???? That would be a killer choice!

Re: Super Strat pickup
Liquid, you´re gonna have to be a bit more precise... We need to know also what kind of amp you´re using and what you want the rest of the tone to be like...
I can recommend you a dozen pickups, all with a "sizzling high end" that "sound good with Overdrive", all of the ones named will falli nto that category on someone´s setup....But otherwise tonally ranging from "Mosquitoes in a Can" to "Godzilla on Steroids"
