Paul,
First off the guitar you have is not a bad guitar, however; it be better to try finding an inexpensive strat. NOT A Squire but a good Strat. But if you like the you guitar try looking into EMG's. They make a humbucker that will fit into a single coil hole. Emg pickups are great. you can get the warmth of a strat or les paul AND the edge of a Schecter or Ibanez. They cost about $60-$90./EA.
