Pups recommendation

[EMG]

Softies,

I just want to hear some opinions from guitarists here. I intend to upgrade my pickups which are SSS. Hot pickups are really stinging sweet, love the sound of it to play solo. There are players who mix and match their pickups to get better sound. I have no ideas what to get for my guitar though.So what do you guys think of the setup for pickups i should use? Any recommendations?

Thanks for your inputs!

what genre do you play dude? and what gear are you using?

Depends on the genre u play..if lots of genres, I'd recommend the Fender Hot Noiseless pickups. They do it all.

Gears/Genre

I play mostly rock and abit of metal songs. I am currently using a Squier and project guitar stratocasters. I was thinking of installing on the project guitar. As for amplifier, i have a 20 Watts Samick LG3, practice amp.

YES! I was looking forward to yours.... but it's sold... Hehe, oh well. I love the sound, been checking it out on Youtube.
How much is it retailing bro? Any idea?

EMG: I got mine from Ebay for about $200 sing incld shipping..new set And they really retain the Strat sound but dun expect pure quack frm the 2nd and 4th positions since they are hot. But the quack is great enuff for me Put it thru a high gain and its still very quiet..no noise at all positions.
