I'm looking for a trio of hot and beefy single coils for an American strat with a maple neck. I really liked the Highway 1 coils for the dark and beefy tone, but I would've liked it to be a little bit hotter. I'm looking for a pickup that can also belt out that mellow bell-tone known to be associated with strats. So all in all, a hot, beefy yet bluesy pickup. Which one would you suggest? I've had ideas and Texas Specials came to mind. But I would also like a noiseless or a pickup that has less of that hum (no humbuckers, though). How bout Hot Vintage Noiseless? SCN? Any suggestions will be considered.

like you said, the hot noiseless would probably work well

The Hot Noiseless does sound very intriguing, but it's so hard to find a Strat with those pickups in the stores. I think it's only available for the Jeff Beck model. I'd like to know how the sound before I'll think of buying them. Does anyone have those pickups?
