I bought a VHII/IT/IT set a while back. I recently decided that I didn't want a humbucker in the bridge of my strat. What do you guys think would work well with the Irish Tour's for a Blues-->Rock vibe. Something a little heavier than Hendrix.

Most blues rock strat SC players choose low output pickups, but you want heavier than Hendrix (so not really blues rock then), so how about a Sinner or, er, an Irish Tour?

I was thinking of just ordering a Bridge IT. I just wondered if the sinner was too hot for blues rock.

I'd get a Mississipi Queen, if 50 mm spacing is OK in the bridge position.

A tapped sinnner - with the tap at 5.9k (for old skool strat sounds) might be very nice - I think an email to BKP might be in order for that one to see if its possible.
