Hi. I've been planning on buying an American strat (as soon as I get the cash), and am kind of planning on making it my only guitar.

One of my thoughts was to have 3 completely different pickups.
I want a very low response pickup that would almost sound like an acoustic, a thick, sensitive, lace sensor-type pickup for slow-melodic leads with lots of reverb. I also want a chunky pickup for doing some nice distorted rythm, like one of those "humbucking" single coils.

I want to know if anyone has tried something similar to this, and if so any thoughts on this as far as brands, of pickups, pots, etc...Or just tell me I'm an idiot cause it'll never work.

Anyway, all responses are really appreciated.
