    Nah, I just ordered the new set of pickups since I was going to do it anyway, the AS57 pickups hummed too much for my liking, these new ASN57's are Noiseless, that is, they don't hum and should be much quieter.

    Yep, I tend to use 42-09 gauge strings on 25 inch, or 25.5 inch scale guitars, and 46-10 gauge strings on 24.75 inch scale guitars, I got to the point where I'm fairly comfortable with both gauges, I seem to remember Fender using heavier gauge strings on their 25.5 inch scale instruments, like the Stratocaster, that's probably why you see a lot of vintage Strats with 5 trem springs.

    I block my trems, hate the things and use 10's, 13's on my slide guitars but anything smaller than 10's? i just dont like them, i should really use 11's for a standard string set seeing as i am a rhythm player who sometimes lashes out into the i am invincible lead role

    Some people like trems, some don't, I'm going to set up the trem on my Strat so that it floats since I want to be able to get that "Surf Shimmer" sound where you play a barre chord and then use the trem to slowly lower the pitch of the chord and then bring it back to pitch, works great on a clean sound with lots of reverb.
