One of the most underrated pickups out there!

I was sorry to see Dimarzio sunset this pickup for the True Velvet line. I have this pickup in the middle position of one of my strats and honestly, I never used the middle position on a strat until I installed this pickup. The combination of the tone and the position makes it seem like I have two differently-voiced bridge pickups. It has enough, but not too much output that if you didn't know, you'd think it was in the bridge position, maybe wired parallel or out of phase. The versatility of this pickup makes it a great choice for strat replacement and it works well in any position.

Liked about it	Easy to install and maintain origninal strat look and feel. Versatile--the tone curve adapts well to any position on the strat with different characteristics in each position. Great value for the price--if you can find one used, GO FOR IT!
Didn't like	Not all pickup covers fit--make sure you get the correct height cover if you're changing colors.
