Well, I like them. That's all that really matters.

They are a great set of pickups, with well behaved tones. The P90 mode is not really as raunchy or hairy as a real Gibson P90. The humbucker tone is really satisfying. The humbucker mode could be sold as a pickup model all on it's own! Since the HB mode is adds a small coil to the P90 mode, the difference in volume between the two modes is not that noticeable.
The output volumes are a modern medium, and a pleaser if you are into using the volume knobs. The highs don't really get dulled down, like most other pickups. Use 500K pots to get all the detail out of them. YMMV. I like metal/Gibsons/Boogies.
