Sonic evaluation: beautiful! turn down the tone on the neck and you get fat, fat tones.
switch to the bridge and you get a screaming trebly lead. these
pickups are hot, so they do eat 9-volts, but they're worth it. They
sound best to me overdriving a small tube amp, with the gain maxed.
not so great for solid states. then they can sound canned.
oh, it does the ballad/fingerpicking thing great, too.
very dynamic.

For which styles and positions is this pickup (un)suitable: i dare you to find even one!

Comments: find it. get it. play it. 'nuff said!

Artists using this pickup:
Your musical style(s): Blues, rock
Reason for pickup change: experiment

Perceived output level: somewhat high, more than stock fender
Tone: trebly with strange 3.2khz boost
Sonic evaluation: has a very nasty phase cancelled sound, lacks
severely the smooth bottom end that a vintage fender pickup should
have. Sounds good however when used through a lot of effects and the
sound is smooth and almost compressed sounding.
For which styles and positions is this pickup (un)suitable: made for
all three positions
