My Strat Plus Deluxe did not sound like a strat with the Red, Silver, and Blue Lace sensors either. I also did not like the TBX tone control. I swapped out the Blue neck pup for another silver which was a lot more stratty. But I eventually rewired the whole guitar and put Lindy Fralin Vintage Hots and yes it sounds like a strat now wired traditionally which gives lots of chime and quack when desired. I put the Fralins on a different pickguard so when I get bored I can switch back to the Laces which are very quiet and good but different and not as vintage sounding. The guitar plays great with the LSR roller nut. I swapped out the Fender Licensed Floyd Rose for the American two point trem. bridge and took out the trem-setter which was not needed on this guitar. I do not like the bump in the middle. I have kept the original parts but frankly I rarely play the strat since I acquired my Tele five years ago. Have fun, Wayne
