A little while back I put a Lollar Dirty Blonde set into my Strat, hoping that it would make a worthwhile change from the average stock pickups. It did indeed, but I still felt like they were too polite for me.
As fortune would have it, I was lucky enough to get some pickups from Seymour Duncan to demo (my first demo for them so please make sure you say lots of nice things to them  ) - their "Hot for Strat" set.I installed them and spent a few weeks with them and am really digging my Strat now. They're pretty much what I want from a Strat pickup - still a true single coil but much beefier. And no icepick from the bridge pickup. Check it out! http://sixstringsamurai.co.nz/2014/11/30/s...-hot-for-strat/ -------------------- http://www.six-string-samurai.com - Gear reviews for the terminally GAS-afflicted.

Liked!
But could you add a time link at the explanation for the isolated tracks? I find those links very useful when looking for stuff

Wellcome in the Seymour family mate!
Nice job. I do like the tone of probably all ssl's. Though....SSL-1 was probably the brightest/sharpest beast

Thank you Darius! I'm usually at least partially in both the Duncan/Dimarzio camps, haha. This is my first time doing an actual demo directly for them though, so I'm pretty stoked about the opportunity.

I get You. I like minihumbuckers for their unique tone but in deed it takes away the signature tone of the strat.

Thanks, Chris!
Yeah I guess the basic compromise is that the hotter you wind your pickups, the more you will lose that vintage single coil tone. -------------------- http://www.six-string-samurai.com - Gear reviews for the terminally GAS-afflicted.
