I have AREA pickups for my maple board strat - 58, 67 and 61, plus a Virtual Solo as a possibility. Hoping to get great vintage Hendrix setup with these but am reading differing opinions about using the 67 in the neck or mid with the 58 in the other. DiMarzio sells it as 58N and 67M. Anyone tried these both ways? I have like 4 possible options with the 58/67 for N/M and then the 61 or VS in the bridge. Thanks in advance

I have the exact same pickups. I put the Area 61 in the bridge - that was a no-brainer. I first had two 58s in the neck and middle but never really liked it in the neck position. I then replaced the middle 58 with a 67 because I thought the brighter pickup provides better quack. Turned out I liked the 67 less than the 58 in the middle when played alone and in combination with the 61 at the bridge. So my final set up is 61 - 58 - 67, going from bridge to neck.
Cheers Stephan
