Your best bet is to wait and play the guitar and let your ears be the guide.I think a "preopinion" might make you prejudge the texmex.I would give them a try first.

i know i prefer my CS 69s over the fat 50s, so i'll probably end up getting the 57/62s 8)

IMO, you're, "all over the map" here in terms of the various pickup sets' tonalities. Before you prejudge and preclude, as was previously suggested, give your new guitar's pickups a chance and judge them one way or the other based on their own merits.

yep definetly did not like the tex-mex. I've 2 strats with 69s, and one with fat 50s. looks like it'll be the 57/62 in the strat i'm putting together now.
