Ok so I have a Jaguar and I know this is going to make me sound like a real n00b, and I am one, but I'm not sure what Jaguar I have. I'm pretty sure it's a classic player Mexican Jag and it comes with those classic Jaguar pickups or whatever but those just aren't hot enough for me, so I was wondering if some more well informed persons could help me choose a better pickup maybe from Dimarzio or Seymour Duncan. I'm looking for some higher output to play some heavier stuff. I don't really play metal but it would be helpful if i could access metal tones as well. And the guitar currently has single coil pickups but I was wondering if I could put humbuckers in as I find they give you a warmer tone.
Oh and please don't tell me it's a crime to modify my Jaguar because in the end, it's my guitar and I currently am not able to achieve the desired tone out of it. So if any experienced people could help, it would be much appreciated. I wanna play stuff like hendrix, page, lifeson, etc so you get the idea.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post. :D

First put some pictures or a serial number so we can identify what guitar you have as we try not to make drastic modifications on valuable instruments.

This topic would receive more visibility (and responses) if posted in the correct section of the forum.
