Need some advice
I have a fender American standard strat and I want to upgrade the PU
I have a Seymour Duncan hot rail slotted for the bridge pu.
I also have a Seymour Duncan lill 59 and not sure to place Irvin the middle or neck?
Any advice on PU placement?

Both of them are supposed to be modelled on PAF pickups, which means that they will change the sound of your Strat into a Gibson, if they work as advertised. That's great if it's what you are after.I have a Seymour Duncan hot rail slotted for the bridge pu.

Those Duncan Lil 59 pickups come in 2 flavors: voiced for neck OR bridge. So you should find out which one you have if it matters to you.

Slightly different output & EQ profile. In the end, you could just put them in & see what happens. Play them a bit, record them. They swap them around & see what happens. :)[br][br]That's a lot of work, but it's fun research. And until you try it you might never know which set up you prefer. Hope this helps!
