JohnC	Re: More strat wiring Thanks a lot, Mark. I'll try those url's. BTW, are stock (actual, standard) strat pickups the same as vintage ones? That is, same type of alnico, type of sound... I'm thinking about installing on mine two standard p/u's in the neck and middle positions, and a noiseless high output p/u or a single coil sized humbucker on the bridge... Which would be the best selection for the brige one? That Seymour Duncan's JB jr. maybe? I would like really loud but clean sound coming out from the bridge, and if it delivered the same attack response as old single coils, you know, that clank-clanky-clank when at ten in the guitars volume pot, the better, but I wouldn't mind just clean high humbucker output to saturate my amp. Thanks again. JohnC
