The Sinner bridge pickup has the biggest cojones of any Strat pickup I've ever heard.  Every time I hear its characteristic sound I want to buy a Strat!

Does this one have the baseplate?

Does it work for Finnish hardcore (http://cotard-syndrom.blogspot.com.au/2012/11/finnish-80s-hardcore-punk-mix-tape.html) too??

No it doesn't.

I haven't tried, but I bet it would be just perfect for that. Here's my attempt for an Estonian punk band.

What are you using in the middle and neck positions?

They're original, and that's all I know. Let's see if I can find out anything. I've considered to replace the neck pickup with the Trilogy Suite pickup anyway.

Not interested in a matched set of Sinners?

Here's what the Sinner neck pickup sounds like:

Jim, isn't that you in the video I linked above of the Sinner neck?  It looks like a HSS guitar - what bridge humbucker did you combine it with?

judging by the youtube comments, it was a screamin demon but he switched it to a Black Hawk

Its a humbucker / single coil guitar.

This guitar has been a bit of a nightmare to get an all round good sound out of but im happy with it now.

The pickup combos have been :

1) Seymour Duncan Screamin Demon / ESP SH100

2) Seymour Ducan Dimebucker / Di Marzio HS3

3) Alnico black hawk / The sinner (In the video)

4) Alnico nailbomb / The sinner (Best its ever sounded so far)
