Back at it again,just installed HS pickups in strat,do not like ,really bland and dull sounding.
So replacing,looking for 3 single coil size (rail or single magnet)humbucker sounding pickups that clean up good to.
For everything from 60s,70s music to rock and some harder type music.
I mostly play on neck position so that would be mostly what Im looking for,plus other 2 to compliment.
Any recommendations?
Thanx for help! 8)

My first thought would be a Cruiser in the neck, Area 58 in the middle and an Injector in the bridge.

I like Budd's suggestion but I would choose the Area 67 for the neck position. It is my favorite neck pickup from DiMarzio when used with 250k pots, and I liked it in every guitar I tried it. One of my strats has (from bridge to neck) Virtual Solo, Area 58 and Area 67 - love that one. Virtual Solo would be close to an Injector bridge.

Had in mind Cruiser in neck (bridge one)which sounded really good on reviews on youtube.
The Area 67,isnt that more single coil sounding?hollow,thin ,quaky .
Looking more for humbucker type.

Yes.
hollow,thin ,quaky .
Hollow - yes, thin - not at all, quaky - if by that you mean quacky, yes.
Looking more for humbucker type.
Then you may be better off with the Cruiser or even the Fast Track 1.
