I would say that the 54CS pups would have more glass and they are awesome.

But the 57/62'S are what do it for me, they give the stratisfied spank I need everytime I play them.

I suggest you go to a shop and road test any strats with either fitted and let your ears decide.

Or buy both of them which is what I did LOL.

Both are great pups, yes the 54's have more bite....but for what I do I like the 57/62's to which in my opinion are more versatile.

I have the 57/62's in my 57 AVRI and they work well for me. I don't have any experience with the 54's. Sorry, I can only attest to the 57/62's, as stated above, very versatile.

CS '54s are very bright and glassy - lots of quack to them - touch sensitive - they are my favorite Strat pups.
