Strat Pickups and why do I hate them?

I was planning on ordering a purple but my mower had a spindle go out and ate the belt so ordered those instead :blink:. Aslo the Amazonians didn't have a purple, there was a burgundy though. :hmmm:
They have a Rainbow set that includes the Purple at amazombie.

I did see that, but I really just want the purple to finish the set as I have the everything set in another guitar and an emerald and gold in the sparkly guitar with a lil 59 right now, still pondering it though.

Another thought: I've found that the amplifier/speaker being used has a significant impact on the overall sound heard from a pickup. Single coil, Stratocaster-type pickups seem to be particularly sensitive to this.

I did see that, but I prefer to go through the amazonians. I need to recoup some slush money right now anyway as I’ve spent the lot on other things recently. Maybe next month.

If could sell something I might buy a set soon.
I’ll have to try.

I prefer to find a used set but it’s a crap shoot.

I like the orange sparkle. 59 not cutting it ?
They have that Dave Murray set with a 59 in the middle but I think maybe the JB jr. in a the bridge. I never played one but I don’t care for the JB full humbucker.

Thank you and the LIl fiddy-9 is a fine pickup, it will end up in something else. Just wanting something a little different for this guitar, also to match the set so to speak. I picked a bad time to get a hair about this as I have decided that all my strats MUST have 22 frets, and I am in the middle of a build, and I want to swap all my saddles out. All while buying new gear to replace what got ruined when my computer and interface got wet from the roof leak. :blink:

Man, if I had that happen I would be upset. I like 22 frets as well.
