I stuck Dimarzio YJM stacked coils into my '88 USA and they sounded fantastic Absolutely slayed the stock pickups in my 2010 USA Strat. They are low output, hum-free and have heaps of clarity with good tight Bass response. Bonus being they sound bloody good when you overdrive them too (Which I have a feeling you are rather partial to)...unlike stock Strat single coils which sound like ass.
Strange, the last thing I'd say about HS3's were that they sounded 'Dull'...
