so which ones did you stick with? How did you like the Bill Lawrence pup's?

@sar2547 The Keystones are a permanent replacement to the Stock MIM pups. No doubt. It was an obvious improvement of tonal range, and clarity. All I can say is that they're a joy to play, and they dish out nothing short of PURE stratocaster vibe. Plus, they run very quiet.

Thank you. Straightforward and nicely edited. Useful.

I've been thinking about getting a set of Keystones and this was a really good demo for hearing the difference. Thanks

@JimyTheAssassin thanks for the reply. I think I will order those for my strat tomorow. I was also looking at the 280 neck and the 290 bridge pup's by BL for my MIM Tele.. Any input on those. I play mostly blues, classic rock, country.
