Number of strings is fine, my problem is that it has one too many pickups and a rosewood fretboard that you can't easily swap for maple.

Well, I have good news for you then... It's Ebony, not rosewood.
I dig that they added unique pickups so it wasn't just a KM-7 with one less string and a shorter scale. Personally, if I was gonna spring for one or the other, I'd go Km-7. I have plenty of 6-strings and only one 7. Plus, I got to play the KM-7 and I thought it was pretty cool. Like Lats, I think that transparent white is just friggin' cool!

True, but since it's two rows of hex poles, the only way you can get them without buying the KM-6 to is call up the custom shop.

How do these Blackened Black Winter pups compare to the standard Black Winter?

Those are actually TB-8s rather than SH-8s. More of a functional change than just cosmetic.

Yeah, but don't hex screws tend to brighten & tighten a pickup?

Except the double screws (vs one series of screws and one of pole pieces) tend to get the tone warmer and less tight so it's kinda one or the other.
Plus you could always swap allen screws for normal ones thus being able to tweak even further.
Not saying it's bad or a gimmick or whatever, just that the effect should probably be minimal and (mostly) reversible.
TBH, based on the descriptions I am somewhat more interested in the Nazgul/Sentinel combo, unfortunately though, I haven't had personal experience with either set to know for sure.
