When I was looking to choose a set for my Strat, my criteria was that the neck pickup had to be the best at emulating Jimi Hendrix's songs like "Wind Cries Mary", "LIttle Wing", "Castles Made of Sand".

After a long and comprehensive listening to clips of pickups all over the internet I found that Lindy Fralins "Vintage Hots" nailed that tone the best over the others. There were plenty of others that would have been fine but, something about the richness and complexity of the Vintage Hots got my attention. So, I put them in.

VEry a nice!
