Dimarzio, Duncan, or Hot Rail in a Fender American Strat

[redemption]

the question is, what would u prefer in a fender american strat for pickups.. dimarzio's, duncan's, hot rails, or other.. also.. single coil or humbuckers... u can explain this for what u would use the guitar for, but for me, i would get a floyd rose on it, and it would be my shred guitar [img]images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img]

Hmm. Good question. I know someone who has a ncie strat with a hotrail in it. And i would suggest that out of the 3. Keep the normal singles, but get a hotrail on the bridge pickup. The hotrail IS a bucker.

Actually, if you want to hear a strat with hot rails in it, ask wahwah which of his mp3s use the hot rail strat. Im also pretty sure iron maiden used hot rails in strats at some point.

Bridge- Seymour Duncan JB Jr.
Middle- Seymour Duncan Cool Rails
Neck- Seymour Duncan Little 59

On most Fender Strats, if you put a Duncan in the bridge, and leave the other Fender single coils in, it will cause you problems. Any combination of the Duncan and the Fender pickups will give you a terrible "short wave radio" type tone. You can overcome this if you dis-assemble your Duncan and flip the magnet. I recommend replacing with all Duncans.

Nope. That's reverse wiring. I've loaded tons of strats with Duncans, and the only problems I have ever seen are the wires reversed. That's when the pup is out of phase.
