I decided to change mi strat's pickups (squier) to a noise less set, but I'm not sure about which pickups do I need. The hot noiseless or the vintage noiseless. I play in a alternative/punk rock band and I also like to play blues so I don't know. The priority is the alternative band, blues is just a hobby!

Any help will be apreciated!

If your priority is alternative/punk rock, the Hot Noiseless would better suit your purposes.

Though you'll have to check you pickup cavity depth before you buy....

I tried to drop a set in to my CP60's Strat....

As you can see above the Hot Noiseless are 1" deep and below shows the CP60's pickup cavities are only 3 1/4" deep.....

Image

....Which doesn't leave much room for pickup height adjustment once they're installed.

Hope this helps

Andy
