Hey guys, just dreaming up what my future strat(Probably a 99 buck dragonfire or sx) with what my pickups are gonna be. Bridge: SD JB Jr. (For when I need a 'bucker 8)) Neck: Fender Texas Special(or any other p/u that will acheive that great SRV tone :) ) Middle: don't know yet. Got two decent low to mid overdrive p/up's(don't fancy metal that much, but if I do, the Jb will probably have to cut it) And I want a good clean pickup to do nice clean jobs and that wil blend nicely with my other two. Any suggestions(including with my other two) will be appreciated. :)

Custom Shop Texas Specials (all three). The mid is reverse wound to reduce/cancel hum. They are surposed to emulate SRV's pups. A.K.A. The same pups that are in the Fender's SRV Stratocaster.
I put them in my '96' Squire and found a difference. But, then again, I think one of the most important things that does effect your tone (other than your fretting hand) is your plectrum. I know your pups, amp, and effects are important but, don't over-look your plectrum.
I'll take that into consideration, thanks tracker :)

I own a fat strat texas special and I love it. It's got the texas special pu's in the neck and middle and a seymore duncan (I think it's the pearly gates model) in the bridge. They sound great to me. But yeah, your playing style and pick can definately alter the sound.
