  • Can anyone give me some pickup suggestions?

    Picked up a 375 about 2 weeks ago. Have it 3/4 done will be modded to kawasaki green as the original body was just not savagable for a trans paint job.

    Need some suggestions on single coils. Something with a nice heavy sound but some good high end as well.

    Bueller?

    I'd go for hotrails personally, but they're not singlecoils...
    Popular is not the same as good
    Rare is not the same as valuable
    Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

      I've been using Fender Vintage Noiseless and really like them. I can get a great clean sound without any hummmmm.

        That Dimarzio YJM is the best balls-to-the-wall stratty neck pup I've ever heard. It's double stacked, though.

            EMG's - S in the neck - stratty to the nines, like a bell chime at 18V.

                  Just depends what you want to hear coming out of the amp.
                  what amp? what style music? etc.
                  Why the hell doesn't Eddie pick up a goddamned guitar and play something?

                      I personally like low to medium output neck and middle pickups with less bass to offset the tonal qualities of their respective positions.

                      This is after having used Cool Rails, Lil 59's, Vintage Rails, SSL-5, SSL-2, VV 401, EMG-S, AND EMG-SAs.

                      With this in mind I'd recommend :

                      SD Hot Strat Stack
                      SD Pearly Gates (this is a custom shop order for single coil size)

                      Dimarzio Fast Track 1
                      Dimarzio VV 54' Pro
                      Dimarzio VV Blues
