I want to upgrade my son's squier strat. It is the one that comes in the beginners package. I don't want to throw a lot of money into it, but I can's afford a $500 guitar right now.

Question is can I drop in a set of Tex Mex pickups or Amercian Standard pick up in this Squier? Will the Squier electronics handle the output for thiese pickups.? Someone told me the out put of the squier is 250K, I hae not idea if that means anyghing.

If the squier electonics do not handle these pickuks what about getting a loaded amercian standard pickguard?

Thanks tony.

Sounds good, but you could pick up a used MIM off Craigslist or ebay for less than 300. Good luck :D
