Dropping fender sss 69 pickups in aerodyne Stratocaster sunburst [View all]

I have never played a aerodyne Stratocaster and it’s actually awesome. Fret edge all around the body and neck something different from fender japan, they say it’s carved top I’m not sure what they mean if you compare it to a Les Paul.

What I see and feel is as fender strat the body is thicker and thins out at edges like any strat. The neck reads c profile to me it seems just a bit thicker in well I compared it to a 62 fender japan Stratocaster we have and a 78 greco strat japan. So in comparison it’s swag scientific wild ass guess on necks.

The single coils from factory sound great to me, although I do have a hearing aid. And the owner wants these 69’s Seymour Duncan’s in. So ok he’s a friend of our sons and a sixteen year old guitar slinger in search of tone as we all do. Tone quest and guitar is like making a meatloaf I told the young man let’s try this in the recipe so will drop in these Seymour 69’s.
