Neck Humbucker to pair with a bridge JB? And a Strat bridge pup
Ok, I am kind of getting ahead of myself, but I'm already planning for the pickups of my next build (single cut, dual humbucker guitar).
I have a mij 54 reissue Strat which the previous owner converted into a HSS, with a SD JB in the bridge. I actually liked the bridge sound on the strat, but I'm keen on converting back to sss and using the JB in the bridge of the single cut. EDIT: Plus the previous owner actually put in a single cut spaced jb, not the trembucker version...
So now I am after a Strat bridge pup and a HB for the neck of the single cut. I'm a big blues, Stones fan, but I end up playing a bit more "modern" fuzz tones with my jamming mates nowadays. I used to have a tele and miss that bridge overdriven sound.
Based on this, I was thinking about a more vintage PAF sound for the single cut neck (Seth lovers, 59?) to match with the JB and a SD twang banger for the bridge... Are there any local (Australian) options or other alternatives (maybe cheaper?) I should be looking at?
