Congrats on the boy! I had a push-pull pot on my Strat. It allows neck and bridge and, indeed, all three. The latter was a bit of a disappointment (though might be better if the mid was non reverse polarity) but the bridge and neck I use a fair amount. Worth a thought. It'll be interesting to hear your thoughts on the pups when you have them fitted- even if you are not able to post a clip, your opinions would be appreciated. I have Apaches and I love them but I have a second Strat to do eventually and it has crossed my mind that I ought to look at other models.
