What you all think of the a humbucker on a Strat - perversion or great addition? What do you miss if you don't have the single coil at the bridge?

You might want to post this in the "Stratocaster" forum instead of the "Modern Amps" forum. You will get more responses over there I bet.

I find HSS Strats to be extremely versatile. A coil split can be put on the bridge humbucker if you need something near single coil sound at times. Although, I don't own one myself. I don't mind switching between my SSS Strat and Gibson SG when I want a humbucker tone.

An hss with the s1 switching makes all the sounds you want. :)

However the humbucker used in strats is very anemic when compared to an SG with p90's.
