Woohoo! New DiMarzio's for Biu's SX Strat!

[Biu]

I'm getting some new DiMarzio's for my SX from Chris Grimmett (Chris' Guitars). I'm trading in my Seymour Duncan JB and Big Muff Pi (Don't really use it anymore) for a DiMarzio HS-2 and DiMarzio Stacked Humbucker to go in the neck/mid positions of my strat. I also scored a DiMarzio Fast Track 2 for bridge off Ebay. Soon, my SX will be all hot-rodded and ready to BURN! I'll get some clips of it as soon as I do.

Just wanted to share some of the good news!

Cool. I'm going to buy an SX Strat in the next week or two. I was thinking about trying some DiMarzios in it out of curiosity. I've already tried a couple of SD's humbucking singles.

Will do, Ken. Have you checked out my latest clips? It actually may be a while before I record clips, I might get some new recording stuff and sell off the old. But maybe I'll lay down a few tracks, who knows :13:

BluesJunkie, you will like it, SX makes great guitars! I'm putting in DiMarzio's for a super-fat, extreme metal sound.

You'll like the FT2, I have one in the bridge of my Charvel and Pro Tracks in the neck & mid. This setup dose METAL very well.

Are yours wired in Series or Parallel? I'm gonna put a push/pull pot on all the pickups so I can get parallel sounds like Paul Gilbert.

How good are these SX Strats anyway? How do they hold up against, like a Fender MIM or MIJ Strat, which are so ever popular?

SX Strats are really great guitars. I think it's better to change out some of the parts though, especially the electronics. Everything else holds up really well though. Compared to Fender, I'd say they are more of a working man's beater guitar type of thing. Something that sounds good and can take a beating. I'd say they are pretty accurate copies though :13:
