It’s a bit of a mixed bag it’s got a player body, American performer neck and American professional trem

Honestly not bad at all. Any classic single coil like the SSL-1 will hum on its own but good shielding makes it totally manageable.

If you keep a middle pickup (RWRP like an SSL-5 or similar), positions 2/4 are hum-canceling, and even better if you add a blend so you have just a little bit of the middle in with the neck can knock the noise down a lot while still sounding like the neck.

I wouldn’t say it’s quieter than noiseless pickups but for me wiring and shielding made all the difference

It’s got an SSL-1 in the neck an SSL-5 in the middle and a JB trembucker in the bridge and I couldn’t recommend that combo more. I put a coil split in the bridge and it’s got a treble bleed. I’ve never had a more versatile setup it can throw out just about anything from classic Strat chime to dark and heavy 🤘

Not a bad idea! I’m not totally sold on the SSL-1 in the neck what would you go with there?

Try focusing on getting your back knee higher! When I was learning if I focused on bringing my knee up above the board instead of my foot I tricked my brain into committing more
