Installed in neck and bridge slots Warmoth Gecko 5.

Sound : 10
Awesome. Hot noise free output. Balanced perfectly. I have a (3) band BQS onboard and (6) bands at my pre, and don't even use any eq with them. They sound great just set flat. I just control my tone with a balance pot. Big blooming tone in front, tight hi-fi in the middle, punchy articulation in the rear, and mixes of all in between.

Overall Rating : 10
I only use EMG pickups. IMO, they are just the best. I have tried Bartolini, Lane Poor, and Duncan's over the years, and have always stuck with EMG.
