So with the desire to have a more humbucker-like tone for the bridge position without going "metal" and within a very strict budget I figured the spec of this pickup might just work out.
First of all, let me explain why I call it the "Tango Strat". Sometime during 2016 I became obsessed with a colour I had seen on some special-run and custom shop Fenders - Candy Tangerine, a metallic orange.
I installed an Artec Hotrail pickup in the bridge position of my friend's Mexican Standard Strat today. He was looking to get a warmer and fatter tone than that of the stock bridge pickup.
Something I have wanted to do for quite a long time is to build my own guitar, ultimately I'd love to actually make the neck and body from scratch, but maybe that'll be possible another time.
