Also bear in mind that you can't blend the pickups using the volume knobs like you can on a 2-pickup one, the bridge/middle sound is controlled only by the bridge controls.
I like them. I don't find the third pickup gets in the way - and I *do* find the middle pickup on a Strat does if it has raised polepieces - I think the arched top puts the strings higher relative to the body and keeps my hand more away from it.

The 50s LPC look is one I've always liled though. Typically the Jimmy Page model has altered wiring so you get a wider palette of sounds.

I nearly bought one in a pawn shop a few years ago.
T'was £80.
Shame it was fucked. Completely.
I doubt even a combined effort of all the luthiers in Britain could have got it back to a decent standard.
The neck was twisted, and the 'board was lifting, the body was cracked (more than paint) and the electrics were knackered. I haven't done justice to how bad it was.
