Sounds awesome in the bridge position of a Les Paul!
Why did you pick this product vs others?:I replaced the stock bridge pickup in my 2019 Les Paul Standard. I wanted more grunt and this thing delivers big time!

Great humbucker for all genres
Bought this to put in my Billie Joe Armstrong (Green Day) replica Stratocaster, and it works perfectly. The tone it achieves nails the early Green Day tone and sounds better than the stock Squier humbucker. The pickup arrived quickly in a nice sturdy box with instructions and was quick to install, having only needed about 10 minutes to figure out the included wiring diagram. Would definitely buy this pickup again in the future for other guitars, as it's one of the best ones I've heard for the price. I use it mainly for playing rock and pop music, but it's versatile enough to play any genre.

Fast delivery
It looks pretty good, I have not installed yet but I have no doubt of the quality of the sound.

This thing screams
I put this in an EVH inspired single humbucker guitar with a single volume knob. It lacked some umph, with the original pickup being vintage voiced (which was great, but not exactly what I was after).After the change to the JB, it went from good to great.I picked the JB because it seems to be the standard. There is plenty of love and hate for it.Anyhow, after the change, this guitar screams. I've given this guitar the nickname "the Snarling Monster." It's MUCH more responsive than the original pickup was. IDK if it's due to the increased DC resistance (measures at 15.8K) over the previous pickup (8.5K), but when totally open, it's like a Snarling Monster. It sounds like a vintage humbucker but louder and maybe a touch brighter...which is exactly what I was after.Love this guitar even more now!!!

Maybe consider a pedal instead.
Well, they are beautifully built and look lovely on my PRS. They have very good output. But do they sound any different than the stock PRS pickups? I'm not so sure. With a few distortion pedals in tow, when I compare them side by side with other humbuckers, they all seem pretty similar to my sensitive ears.
