I read through 189 pages of this post and didn’t see this idea mentioned (forgive me if it was and I missed it): I’d love to try these pickups in a Fender. The pickups in my SC-2 were stellar. Thoughts?

Judging from the few demos I saw online, these pups sound nice and full. I'm sure they would sound great

I believe it was mentioned somewhere that the main reason that G&L kept the traditional JM size on the pickups was so that they could be used as replacement pickups.

Hummmm. Maybe a set should go in my Zaftig?

Worth watching for the bit about the vibrato. He's a character.

He's my least favorite guitar reviewer. Lazy. Unprofessional. Tool. That said, the Doheny sounds good, even in his hands. THUMBS UP!

I knew I couldn't be the only one. His interviews are painful to watch, too. You'll have an interesting and talented artist offering a profound or interesting viewpoint, and he'll undermine it with a generic dudebro "yeah, totally, man".
