    Neck pickup is the only pickup required

    For me the bridge/middle sound is the only sound Strats bring to the table, it's unique and fantastic.  The others are doable better elsewhere or useless.  

    I never got the middle pickup only thing but Gary Moore used it a lot so what do I know :)
    C'mon now. The sound of a strat neck pickup is iconic.
    Certainly, but can be done with other stuff. Wonder how many Floyd fans assume the solo on Another Brick is a Strat? :)

    Funny, Richard Thompson probably single-handedly put me off. Great musician, but his guitar sound is almost as annoying as his Mick McCarthy singing. 
    I find him unlistenable when he’s using that sound, which is a shame because I want to like his songwriting and playing.

    I did for decades.
    Isn't it a LP DC with P90's?

    No, the finest of ALL Les Pauls... a Gold Top with P90s.
