Morning all - looking at a strat for my next project and researching pickups.

Aim to replicate Fender Professional Series wiring using 250k CTS pots, 0.022 CAP and treble bleed circuit (1200pF CAP, 150k Resistor in parralel and 20k resistor in series.


What is people's experience with Fender's CS Texas Specials vs Tone Rider City Limits. I have watched the Fender demo for the Texas Specials and these sound great, but the City Limit videos are not a good comparison. Toneriders are also a couple of hundred cheaper and was happy in my PSR 1 with the AC2 from TR.

I am lookng for a versatile pickup to provide nice full bodied cleans but also something that can be driven via pedals for indie rock / garage rock. Keen to hear from the forum on their experience.
