Thanks for the advice guys, my friend's little brother is giving me a crappy squire strat so ill fiddle around with that. This will increase tension (and perhaps keep tuning stabler) and limit how much the strings go up in pitch when you pull on the trem bar. You might want to consider tightening the claw screws so that there's little or no clearance from the trem baseplate to guitar body. There's a lot to choose from in the aftermarket.so, all kinds of tonal variations, some of which may float your boat.Īs to the "sensitive" Strat trem. Probably the best thing to do is experiment with different Strat pickups. ive never been happy with the middle and bridge pickups and never really use them, although i love the neck pickup for jazz so ill keep that but my idea was to replace the middle and neck with jaguar pickups, would jaguar pickups(w/ cover and claw) fit in a standard strat pickguard? also i dont like the sensitive trem, is there any way to make it more subtle like a bigsby or jag trem? "When in Italy, if the menu says something's grilled, don't assume it is." if you play other music too, than a stock strat is great surf guitar AND a great guitar for other music, so just keep it like that.Īnd I bet that the strat sounding bad is due to the Marshall you put it through! (insert demonic laughter ) Like said: if you only play surf, and want a jag, sell the strat get a jag. if it's a US strat, with a decent set up, it should sound good. If that's not the case with your strat, than by all means, just leave it alone. let's put it like tthis: it was, in my case, an improvement, but it's not very great and I still play the middle pup (a SD) 99% of the time

Other things to consider: i did this mod cause I just love to tinker, have a crap strat, only had one decent pup in there, and had the jag pups. you also might run into problems with the pots, cause I think the strat pups ask for 250k pots and the jags for 500 (not sure) It will never sound like a jag in any case, if not for any other reason, than for the scale lenght which is differnet. the pup is broader, so if you cut out the hole right (bridgeways on top and neckways at the bottom, it's is still slanted, but only a little. no problem at all with lining up in the bridge position. I have installed to jag pups in a strat - in the outer positions.

Trial and error is what you need here, just keep plugging away at it until you're satisfied. The action of the vibrato tailpiece (called tremolo by Fender) can be stiffened up by either tightening the claw in the trem cavity, or you may need to add another spring.

It's your ax, do what you want with it, just be prepared to go through the spat line if you make mods like this, and tell us/post pix of it. I tend to agree, but I'm not a purist about it. Most guys will tell you that if you want the Jaguar sound, then buy a Jaguar. If you still wanna do this, go ahead, but first, are you sure that the Strat pickups have been adjusted to the correct height? Too low, and they sound like crap, muddy crap at that. The pole pieces won't line up under the strings, and the sound will be a bit weak and maybe thin. Worse, the length of a Jag pickup is too short to fit properly under the strings if you mount it in the bridge position like a Strat - slanted. The short answer is no, Jag pickups won't fit directly into a Strat pickguard. Don't bother with any other pedals, unless that Marshall doesn't have any kind of tremolo (or it has one that's worthless). You need that reverb tank, and it never hurts to have echo, so you're good to go at this point. Since you aren't inclined to change amps (yet), fine, skip the Fender for the moment. To the forums! I'm sure you'll like it here, but we do have problems sometimes, keeping these guys on a leash. Jacob, Dave, what am I gonna do with you two? I buy you books, I send you to school, and what do ya do? You slap around the new guy.
