«  Super Pickups! »

I wanted to change the neck pickup of my old Strat US 1975 which was not great (I had already replaced the bridge pickup with a humbucker DiMarzio SuperDistorsion!).
After sailing on the net, I came across the site Tornado MS, and his great demo Pickups: In the end I took the total, ie the Set 3x μStrato 60's (L series), purchased and installed a new guitar "TORNADO Strat1963_L Reissue 'meeting by Marc Aimar aout2014:

_ Pickups: This set of 3, with stepped studs is properly superb, and what a sound! Very inspiring!
Focused on the medium, hot for a Strat, never even on μ nasal bridge. Neck pickup: super sound Hendrix & SRV .. Guaranteed quality of my game around!
It has beautiful crystal harmonics, especially in intermediate positions 1 + 2 or 2 + 3 (5-way switch): finally the powerful, vibrant and subtle complete what I really could not have with my micros1975 to studs stepped Not too bassy and relatively bland.
Also, Alnico V magnets are very well rounded finish.
I find it very cool prices, given the quality of these microphones, deep knowledge of Mark, his wise counsel and availability!

_ Guitar: Vintage chose Olympic White "Light Relics", which is perfect! all metal parts are Fender Reissue or period1963. Light body, frets Vintage fine, resonant handle very, very polite, super comfortable with light nitrocellulose lacquer old! Key Light Rosewood "PaoFerro" very smooth, but sensual! All well done, an action that I possibly would lower with time.
