I think the hyperbole of the description is comically useless.

I have been looking for a new neck pickup for the Strat.

I think it belongs in all 3 positions of a Strat.

I think it belongs in all 3 positions of a Strat.

With wiring that would allow all 3 pups to be on at once. In fact, skip the switch. Just hardwire them to the output. That would be sweet.

Put it under the pickguard :evil:

Very unlikely, but if the pickup business goes bust on day, some folks at SD will surely have seniors copywriter job offers lined up the next day. The description is hilarious.

Adding this one to my "pickups to maybe possibly think about seriously trying someday" short list.

I hope someone takes the plunge and reports back!

I can't decide if it's a case of knowing your target audience too well, or not at all.​

In series!

Maybe they should make a green one called SLIME.
