Vintage Rails or Classic Stack?

[Alex_g87]

Hi, i have a strat with a hotrails in the bridge and stock p'ups in the middle and neck. I want to replace them both with either Vintage Rails or Classic Stacks? any thoughts as to what's a better choice? I'm looking for a bluesy sound (SRV, Hendrix, etc etc) but I also play alot of David Gilmour stuff. I also don't want alot of feedback when using high gain settings at high volume. Thanks.

the new stacks will hopefully be out later this year, i'd wait for those, in fact, i am waiting for those for my strat.

I prefer the Classic Stacks over the VRs.

The new Stack Plus pickups are worth waiting for. I have a set here that I beta tested and they really are all that.

I think I'd agree with Robert - the Classic just edges out the VR. But the VR is still great. You can't really go wrong with either.
