Perfect output for an over the top strat sound IMO - but actually sounds like a nice Tele bridge on steroids (the influence of the Baseplate). Using the tone control to roll off the tops slightly gets you into P90 ish territory.
Using a Mesa Boogie Subway Blues with Maxon CP101 comp, Luxury drive, Barber LTD and Barber Direct Drive
Incredibly responsive with a med overdrive - sings with high gain - heaps of grind and crunch and a balanced output
Didn't play well with the CS54's due to their output, probably - I'm gonna add a hotter Middle and neck - the 4th position quack wasn't compromised much but was different.
Overall Rating
:

I really like this pickup and would put in in future strats for sure
I've tried lot of hot pickups, this one shines - its sounds like it was meant for this guitar
Customer Service was excellent!
