oh sorry...i got caught up in the stupid part of the post and overlooked the useful part. a couple of posters asked what kind of music you wanted to play on your electric and that helps steer you in the direction of pick ups...which helps greatly in the steering you in the direction of what type of ...

[quote="kcw"]Ok Strats are crap because for one the pickups that fender uses arent very good quality.
