I found them be way bright too, but when I checked the pots I realized that someone had installed a 500k volume pot. OK, I swapped to a 250k pot, and then the Hot Golds sounded very good. I later tried a Burgundy in the neck. It is said to sound like a P90-pickup, and it actually made my Strat sound like an old Les Paul with P90s. Too jazzy for me, and changed back to the Hot Gold 13k in the neck. It´s meant to be in the bridge, so it´s a bit dark in the neck, but I use a TBX volume pot, so I can make it brighter if necessary.
Edit: that´s a nice Strat, GoranS!
