Tokaigeezer.I have a set of vintage + (with a blues in the bridge). I prefer the V+ to the blues as they are much less mid rangy, but still quite hot. You get a really decent quack in the in neck middle combination, but I am thinking of going to true vintages or something similar for even glassier tones. I'd definately recommend V+ though, especially if you're into that SRV sound.
By the way, I hope to have some pics to post of the pink springy soon. It has had to be lovingly restored though, and is in no way all original condition. It was the perfect guitar for my daughter though, so I took off all the fender parts and replaced them with new parts I had made. I got a local engraver to put final prospec on the blank saddles for very little money, and found a person who had a springy sound decal to replace the strat one on the headstock. The neck has been refinished and so has the body as the old paint was pretty ropey. For those of you who might be worried, I have no intention of trying to pass this off as an all original springy, it was bought with the sole intention of giving it to my little girl. In any case, the pickups are non original, as are the pots etc so anyone in the know could spot it from 10 miles away!
