    Default I got a complement from my setup guy

    About how great my MIM Strat sounded.

    I told him about how I only paid 15 dollars for the clearance overwound pickups from guitar fetish, and he was shocked about how awesome they sounded for how little I paid for them.

    I so love getting complements about my $150.00 modded MIM Strat ude:

    MIM Strats are great. I installed new pups in mine right after I got it 4 years ago. I also installed a Callaham steel block in it. Great guitars for modding out. Congrats on the compliment.

    Check out the pics I took in this thread. The install is easy. Takes about 15 to 20 minutes or so.
