I would be fine with the bridge and middle pickups of that set but I would go lighter on the neck.

What do you recommend for the neck pickup position? I tend to go clean/low gain on neck. I don't want it to be too bright, just fat and warm that blends into the background and thickens the mix.

I could buy the pre-wired configuration and then swap the neck pickup

Thanks

Thank you very much for narrowing down my choices. It seems like this is a great deal, https://www.dimarzio.com/pickups/pre-wired/injector-strat-replacement-pickguard

Hi all, a DiMarzio newbie here! There are so many good choices to choose from. I am having a little choice paralysis here. Here's a quick background:

I have an American Ultra SSS Strat with the Ultra Noiseless Vintage pickups. I think the clean tone is okay but the dirty tone is lacking. It's lacking the roar I seek. The pickups have vintage/medium outputs, with 7~8 kOhms DC resistance. I want a beefier single coil sound to mimic the 80s metal. I have Duncan JB for humbuckers on my other guitar. I want a fat single coil sound. Well in general I just think I am not 100% satisfied with the stock pickups.

I learned that a lot of 80s metal guitarists used FS-1. I like the tone but I wonder if there's anything better since FS-1 has been around 30+ years.
I still want to keep my SSS for clean tone, something that is warm and suitable for rhythmic playing on neck/middle pickups. The bridge will be for lead playing, with high gain. What SSS combo do you recommend?

You input is much appreciated!
