If you could only play one for the rest of your life.

Which pickup would you choose...Single coil or Humbucker....Your reason would help.

Single Coil Nosieless. Less Electrical Interference.

Single coil - - just personal preference.

I'd have a hard time deciding between a Strat with L series style and a Casino John Lennon with P-90s,both pickups ring beautifully when played clean but dirty up real pretty.

I gotta go with single coils as well. Humbuckers don't have much character IMO.

Singlecoil!!!!
Fender is more of a singlecoil company so since I love the tone of fender I am gonna have to go with singlecoil.
Nothing against Gibson because I love the Growl of a Les Paul through a JCM 800
or the jazzy tone of their Hollow Bodies.

Peace.

Strats don't have only one pickup soooo....

Kinman P90HX for the neck
Kinman Mk III for the middle
Coil tapped Pearly Gates for the bridge

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
