      Well the Alternative 8 did not fit the cavity (the pickup was kind of slanted, so I couldn't get it in)

      So I installed the Invader. Boy oh boy.........

      This is the fattest thing I have ever tried...whoever says it's only good for metal and rhythm needs to give it another try......I have been playing like for 20 minutes non stop.

      Best of all, I have a 2 humbucker guitar with a 5 way superswitch, so position 5 is bridge in series, and position 4 is bridge in parallel. So in series is fat, powerful, awesome for leads, but all that "too much of everything" disappears when you switch to parallel. Then it becomes very similar to a SH6, but since it's still very powerful, it doesn't sound weak at all.

      I wasn't this shocked by a pickup for a long time !!!
