Just put distortion on the strat and it will be good enough for metal, it's a truly versatile guitar, and not "bad" for rock and metal unlike some people say
Holy fuck I thought hitting the switch was my bad technique since I thought the switch was designed to be there. I didn’t know it was a legit pet peeve 😭

As a piano player I love when someone else comes up and insists they’re better than me by playing half the notes of Mary has a little lamb and then sits there for another hour trying to prove it lol
shoulda quenched in oil, water boils off to fast and leaves pockets of steam witch can cause uneven cooling of the metal and risk cracking it, when it gets tempered like that it gets stupid brittle, honestly on something with as small of a surface area as a trem bar it dosent reeeeeeeeeeally matter but i want ot be a stranger on the internet that says youre wrong
*For those more daring, there are some simple and safe mods that you can explore first so you're not sacrificing the advantages of a single coil or spending an arm and a leg to get an upgrade so you have something pro level in at least this one regard.* You can cut a steel plate from sheet metal and glue it to the back of your pickup's magnet. This reflects more of the magnetic field upward and you easily double to triple your output also effectively increasing sustain. *After this mod, you can use passive R-C filters for low-pass, high-pass and bandpass schemes that normally consume too much power in passive systems, but aren't a problem at all with this mod.* That means if you want a huge boost in mids to get a strat more like a Les Paul, it's easily achieved. There's one more mod in this scheme which is increasing the volume pot to a 1-meg which takes output to an even crazier level that rivals an active set, but there is a noise risk when you roll the volume back and place a load on the pickup that can make 60-cycle or other atmosphere sources of RF worse. I'm a formally educated amateur electrical/electronics engineer(no degree) and personally highly prone to converting every guitar I own into actives. With a simple Class-A design, your pickup sounds identical to before but with literally 20x the voltage output.
He also spent nearly all day playing on many occasions, like 12-hour+ grind-outs. The only person who was more addicted to their guitar than Hendrix was Clapton
john talked in an interview about how the snow riff was inspired by hendrix and said "it had already been done like that a lot so i wanted to try something different" and then he showed how he think hendrix would have played it, and played almost the same shit. so spot on.
