Now, Gibson doesn't really publish their pickup outputs or DC resistance values, but I can tell you this is one burning hot pickup. I have a hot ceramic set in a Les Paul and they'll keep up with any other replacement high-output pickup (Dimarzio X2N, Duncan Dimebucker, etc.) with no problems. The tone is well-balanced, albeit a little on the noisy side. If you have good noise reduction technology (HUSH, ISP, etc.) you'll have no problems. It takes a bit of riding the volume control to get a clean sound out of this pickup, and depending on the quality of your controls you may not be able to pull it off.

Great for those who want more output.

Expensive--more so than the Dimarzio or SD counterparts.
Doesn't do clean very well.
No published output numbers.
