I'm thinking I'm going to upgrade the pickups on my Highway One strat - any advice on any of the following?

I'm considering:

* CS Texas Specials
* CS '69
* CS Hot Noiseless (Jeff Beck) pickups

Any opinions out there?

i have the same idea too, I'd probably go with Texas Specials or Noiseless

Texas is associated with blues and maybe country
and i think Noiseless are associated with Jeff Beck and Clapton

If i'm going to but these PickUps, could i buy them separate? I mean, buying one by one? Or i only can buy them toghethar?


Thanks for the help.

The Hot Noiseless would be my choice. They have the tone and are noiseless. While the CS Texas Specials and the CS '69s would probably have a slight edge for clean, lower gain applications. Your choice would depend on your playing and music style.
