Wanna try going full-blown single coil (as opposed to stacked humbucker) as I really love the contrast, and more or less always split my neck pickup whenever I'm on it anyway :shrug:
JB/Aldrich/Distortion (whichever I'm in the mood for at the time, I seem to be cycling these at the moment :lol: ) in the bridge so can't be massively vintage output.
I've really enjoyed the Dimarzio Area 61 in the past, so something along those lines. Can be hum-cancelling, don't care about being "true" single coil or any of that shit.
After trying Cruises (both Bridge and Neck variations) I also decided to go with a real Single on my SDX on the Neck and got the Dimarzio Area 67. Since I dont use it often so when I do I really wanted a real difference.
I don't, but I have a set of Suhr V60LPs about to go into my ash/rosewoood strat in place of the Suhr V60s currently in there, and after that I may have a spare set, depending on how it goes. :lol:
But if you can get your hands on a Suhr ML Standard, they are absolutely fantastic.
Still willing to try some whilst I'm waiting for the right stuff to come up second hand. I just feel like the right one is lurking out there somewhere. Plus they're cheaper than humbuckers and an easy turnaround if I don't like it (due to the sheer number of strat players out there)
Edit: fuck it. This is just out of impatience because I wanna get my guitar set back up again. Gotta keep my eye on the prize. I want a Duncan Hot Rails, they just never come up second hand and I'm such a tightwad I hate buying pickups new :lol:
Nah, thanks man but i'm gonna be a good boy and hold out for what I actually know I want. If I can't find one second hand in the next week i'll just buy new and get over it :lol:
What are you looking for? Full set or individual pickup?
Off the top of my head, in my parts box I have...
Fender Texas Specials (set)
Fender Hot 50s (set)
Fender Eric Johnson (set)
Suhr V60 (set)
...as well as maybe a few more. I think I have a pair of Fast Track 2s, but I'd have to look. Most are white, but I have a couple black covers too I think, and those are easy to swap. I'll try to remember to take a full assessment tonight. I have an Area 61 and 67 wired into a pickguard at the moment, but I could probably be talked into taking them out as an excuse to try some other noise-cancelling single in their place.
And yes, I'm aware I have a singlecoil-trying problem. :lol:
Haha cool man ill keep this list in mind for future reference, but I picked up a Duncan Hot Rails so I'm no longer looking :locked:
