The STK-S4 are noiseless versions of the SSL-1s, and they are pretty spot on

Indeed...but you have to decide if you want noiseless or not. It is always noiseless for me, but everyone is different.

I'd swap the neck for an S7, gives the neck a bit more warmth and more quack in the neck/middle position.

I had the STK-S7 in the neck and didn't like it, too warm and bass heavy. Remember that the STK-S7 was designed as a bridge pickup. Might fit well with in the neck with a dark humbucker in the bridge so you can set your amp accordingly.
However I think the STK-S7 is a very good match to the STK-S4, a good balanced set IMHO.

STK-S4 are the noiseless versions of the SSL-2s (flat poles).

To me, they have more power, and a softer high end. Which is exactly what I want.
