I aligned mine with the box they're stored in after being replaced by humbuckers .

But yeah, isn't the noise kinda vanishing in the mix? Hendrix records would be unlistenable otherwise - he was playing a strat with a fuzz and AFAIK noise gate/removal tech back then was a bit rubbish, and it still sounds okay. I did a couple of recordings with my strat copy too and there was less hum problem than expected (and it was pretty high gain stuff).

Unless its some anomalous, strat-unlike noise, but it's hard to say without samples.
