"A great pickup for that classic sound."
I am going to hang on to this one. I don't think I will use another humbucker. This complements my other Strat with Kinman classics when I need a fatter sound. I don't have to tweek the amp when I change guitars on stage. I can't find anything I don't like about these pickups.
Sound
This is the sound. Sound of this through my JCM2000 DSL50 is everything a person wants in a rock tone. Responds to guitar volume, pick attack and sustains forever. Nice feed back too. Not screechie at all. Warm yet good high/low frequency response with a good edge. I replaced a Pearly Gates with this and got rid of the overly mid sound of that one. Now I have a much more versitle and usable tone. I highly recomend this one. There is no coil tap or split feature, but it doesn't need it.
The Wow Factor
This pickup gives my guitar a whole new feel and I just love it. Wow!

Sound
This is a great pickup for a utilitarian type of guitar. If you are looking for that vintage Les Paul sound, this will definitely get you there. It has excellent warmth and sustain, but plenty of attack to allow you to cut through.
Features
As all Seymour Duncan products, the quality was excellent.
Value
You get what you pay for. As a consumer, obviously we would all like it cheaper. But, it is definitely worth the money.
Manufacturer Support
Frankly, I've never needed their technical support. Their installation drawings are right on the money.
