What's up with 4 coil pickups?

[solspirit]

I was looking for loaded pickguards when I came across this. Is this something new?

If you can't make it better make it bigger.

Not new: a now retired luthier / winder for whom I've worked had a model like that in his catalog. The interest of the thing was in the multiple wiring options available...

Quad rail pickups have been around awhile. Thing is, I've never heard any that sound all that great.
