Alnico II Pro Is it worth?

Re: Alnico II Pro Is it worth?

They are sweet pickups. I especially like the neck pup....I don't thing you'll go wrong with these. Very warm sounding, not high output, but not a slouch by any means....

These pickups are very variable. The difference in the APH in an SG vs. Les Paul for instance is crazy. It sounds like garbage in an SG (as do most Alnico II magnet pickups) yet it sounds amazing (Slash, etc.) in a thick bodied instrument like a Les Paul. I've been interested in how they sound in a maple top PRS CE.

Mine just went in my strat, and it sounds no better than the stock pup yet altho is cleaner i must say.
