I have a '96 or so Strat Lonestar with the Pearly Gates HB in the bridge. The HB sounds great. However, the other two single coils sound muffled and quite in comparison. Does anyone else have this issue? Can anyone suggest replacements that would be better matched?

Thanks

If im not mistaking the single coils are texas specials,,they should kick azz. Sounds like it could be a pup hieght issue. easy fix.

Good Luck

Good advice,Texas Specials should sound great,put them closer to the
strings and maybe lowering the bridge HB a little to balance them.
Also try to adjust your amp to the single coil pu's.

That's why I say the Stratocaster is made to be a single coil guitar. If you need a humbuckers tone get an Epi LP or SG or 335 to go along with your strat.
