My answer is always yes, by the way. Whether mine, Lollar, Fralin, or anyones else's.
Bill Lawrence is one of those names that has been around for ever.

Yes, put some good pickups in, it seems to particularly matter with single coil guitars.

And a tip- unless you know what youre doing, buy a set from from one mfr so they're all wound to the same polarities. Some wind this way, some wind the other and most modern sets have a RWRP middle pup. Mixing up three SC pups from different winders can do your 'ead in.....
