And I can't stop jamming along to old blues stuff. I've even been playing along to some Blood Sugar Sex Magik - great fun. Bit of fuzz and a wah... tad bit of overdrive. Schweet stuff.
I've been playing both through my Laney Cub 12R and my IRT Studio. Both work really well. We have some band recordings coming up, and I'm going to stick a bit of strat on them.
Just had new strat pups put in...

Re: Just had new strat pups put in...

You said Strat, fuzz, wah, and Laney in the same thread. Winning.

Re: Just had new strat pups put in...
This is what I woke up to this morning:

MIJ '89 Fender Strat Cream like a mother licker! > Wilson Effects Funk Factory > EP Booster > Super Crunch box (for light overdrive) > Wilson Effects Fuzz >> IRT Studio > WIN.
Oh there's a Maxon 808 on top of the amp if I need it... AND a phaser on my shelf. Scotch, Rum, and Beer... Do I really need anything else today?

Love it! So I guess you are enjoying the Duncans? 
Something about strat neck + middle tones with light overdrive that just hit my ears perfectly.

By far the best pickups that suit this guitar... (I've gone through loads of boutique pups) and it's gone through so many changes over the years. I do like the Antiquity II Surf as well, but these hit the tone I've been hearing in my head.

Just a set of California 50's (SSL-1's). Nothing overly fancy, but sound great.
