Hi,
Hoping someone can help me out with pickup selection.
I mainly gig with 2 American Deluxe HSS Strats.
Both alder body and both with SCN's. One is 2004 with rosewood fretboard.
The other is 2007 with maple fretboard. The 2007 sounds fine , nice and open
and over the time that's become the one I use exclusively.
The 2004 has become just so bland sounding to me over time.
I'm playing with a Mark V amp now and it really seems to have brought out the differences
in these guitars. Does anyone have HSS pickup recommendations for this one guitar ?
I play in a cover band playing mainly classic rock (not metal or progressive), blues, old R&B.
I'd appreciate any thoughts /ideas.
Thanks !
Tony

Probably not qualified, but if I were to change to an HSS configuration this is what I would try.
