I loved the 2 single coil and humbucker bridge pickup on this super strat
I had a flip flop white to blue to purple. The guitar was very flexible. I loved the Seymour Duncan Pickups and the Original Floyd Rose with the Floyd Rose Trem-setter. This kept the guitar in tune really well.

30 years and still going strong
Bought this beauty second-hand. Needed a bit of work to get the controls functioning properly, but armed with a period-correct Floyd Rose and Seymour Duncan pickups, complete with a coil-split, this is any 80's rocker's wet dream. Neck is slightly flatter than an Ibanez Wizard III, very comfortable for shred, absolutely love it.
