Fellow Stratheads-

My MiM is having her stock pick-ups swapped out for some Texas Specials- A Tech at my work is doing the soldering (I work in Theatrical/Concert lighting)- I am like an expectant father- I hope she will be OK....

I felt the same way when I had Texas Specials installed on my Squier Strat. Don't worry, you'll like them. :)

Nice. Play the crap outta it for a while with the TS's and then update this thread with your thoughts on it. It's gonna be really different.
