Which Humbucker for my Strat Bridge position.?

[CrazyD]

Hi Guys

Please recommend a Humbucker for my Strat Bridge position.

Ive been told to use the JB.

Its a 62 re issue Strat so it has Vintage bridge spacings.
That obviously means that I cant use the same JB that I fitted in my Les Paul because the Pole piece spacings will be incorrect.

What is the exact Model Number of the JB I'll need to use.

Thanks for your help.

TB-4.
That should cover the spacing on a strat.

Don't let the string spacings be a big factor in your pickup selection..It makes very little difference if any...Great strat bridge pickups...In no particular order....The C5,CC,59 and the PG+,I also like the Hybrid but with an A5 magnet in a strat.The most versatile of all of these is probably the C5 followed by the 59..

I'd vote for the 59B Trembucker. I think the JB will overpower your stock Strat pickups and the 59B Trembucker will be a better match. EVH used a pickup around the specs of a 59B on his classic albums and so did Clapton when he recorded with Cream. Larry Carlton also used humbuckers similar to the 59 for the Joni Mitchell, Crusaders, Tom Scott and Steely Dan recordings. Those are some of the best humbucker tones ever recorded...and the 59B will get you right in that territory and sound great with your Strat single coils...IMO. Lew
