I have a '97 MIA Fender Strat Plus that currently has a semi-Billy Corgan setup: BC-2 in the bridge, Ripper in the middle, Cruiser in the neck. I like the Cruiser in the neck quite a bit, particularly to cop Khruangbin tones, but the bridge is lacking. I play a variety of styles but tend to divide my pickups between the neck, which I use for cleans, and the bridge, which I use for heavy tones and leads.
My Strat has a universal route so I can put a full-size humbucker in the bridge. I play in drop D most days through fairly high gain. I don't need something that matches the output of the Cruiser, just something that sounds good in the bridge of a Strat. I'm eyeing the DiMarzio Tone Zone, AT-1 and Super Distortion, but am open to anything.
