Changing the pickups on a guitar will have an affect on the sound. Some of the newer single coil pickups are noiseless, others are high output. As far as how these pickups will affect the sound of your guitar is really hard to say because even though pickup manufacturers put a lot of words to describe what a pickup sounds like, it often depends on the guitar itself and the amp you are using on how a pickup will actually sound. If your guitar is a genuine '77, unless something is broken, I would not change pickups if you plan to re-sell the guitar, because many would see that as decreasing its value. But depending on what the manufacturers say about their pickups, you can pretty much use that as a reference point. If, for example, the pickup is high output, and humbucking, you can expect high output and no noise...

Do you want to drop a complete pickup assembly (with pickguard) into your guitar ?
