Fender CS 54's and 57/62's

Thank you to everyone for their input on this and your answers are very interesting to me because I am going to be spending probably over £100 for one or the other, so the thread was important to me.
Regards Tony

I would think the strats Hank was using in the 60's were equipped with 57/62 pickups. Given all specs remain reasonably consistent, It would makes sense to use 57/62 pickups as one of the components to get closer to that 'sound'.

BTW..
orion isnt a galaxy, its a constellation.
As far as the number of stars is concerned its around 80. (how does that square with the number of effects units?)

Yes John, you should.

BTW I found this, you can count the blessed things.

Anyway I'm off for my Saxophone lesson. ( Now then, which reed did he say I should be using? )

Reed? You use a reed? Now I know where I went wrong when I tried learning the alto sax . . .

To Alan Bakewell,
Why have you treated my posting with contempt with your undertones on post 10 and why did'nt you just ignore it if you had no helpful contribution to make?
