took their single pickups and flattened the pole pieces.
This ↑, and a 7.25" fretboard radius on vintage Fenders as well.The thing you have to remember with vintage stagger is it’s designed for balancing string to string output with a wound G string.
Why? Can you not tell the difference when you adjust pickup height? This is essentially the same thing... The pole pieces are closer or further away from the strings.I like Strats, I've got Fender and Suhr, but I always thought stagger versus flat was for the 'Cork sniffers'

Not quite the same thing...Just set the flat pups slightly higher.

Not right now. I'm focusing on technical skills atmNot quite the same thing...

When I focus on playing, the details of the sound are a key part.
I doubt anyone here could tell the difference in a blind test.
Suhr really are the business. I've 2 Classic S and they trump my Fender Strats.Then there are pickups like Suhr makes that have a modern stagger: https://www.suhr.com/pickups/single-coil-pickups/ The ones I have (V60LP & 70's) are very well balanced. Definitely better than flat of vintage stagger on a modern guitar.
Heat it with a fan? Weird fan
