I ordered this pickup to replace to crappy bridge pickup of my LTD FX-260, which sounded pretty horrible and flat with it's passive 'EMG's'. And boy, this has been an upgrade! This pickup easily screams, bites and growls it's way through any heavy style that you can think of. But not only that! Roll back the volume and you can get a really nice rock/blues sound out of it. If you have a push-pull pot, you can split the coil and get a sound that I would desribe as a very hot stratocaster.

The build quality of the pickup is great, as expected, and to my surprise it came with all the parts necessary (screws and springs) to replace the old pickup.

Pro's:
- very high output, suited for any heavier style
- smooths out nicely with the volume rolled back
- coil split
- not even that expensive!

Cons:
- when used on a small amp it lacks definition, highs and lows could be more distinct sounding

All in all I advice you to get this pickup, it beats even a lot of pickups with a higher price point and in my opinion it sounds better than an EMG 81. Hope I helped you out!

Bought to update the stock bridge picups of a Jackson JS32 Roads.

The overall feeling is great and it is compressed and even to play, giving a massive thick sound-wall with tight bass response. The sounds is clear, but it does sound somewhat mid-scooped.

Pros:Great output, great rich overtones and strenght in pinch harmonics
Cons: Somewhat lack of mid and difficult to get to cut through a mix.

I’ve got 500T as bridge pickup to complete 496R as set for Gibson SG. This sound is the one exactly you want to get. Loud and sensitive ceramic pickups with some compression.
One star removed from retail package quality. Plastic box is fragile and hardly reusable as storage compartment.
