Quality:I received mine wax potted already, but I did dip em in for a second round to be safe.The pickup is different in that they come with 3 magnets, rather than the 2 you'd expect. That third magnet makes them very high output, but it also makes it not quite hum-cancelling when split.Because it makes half of each rail pair stronger they pick up more stray interference. After pulling that 3rd (middle) magnet off it made the pickup a touch brighter and fully humbucking when split.Tone:They're not the -exact- sound I was looking for, but they are close enough. They are very chunky sounding and work great with distortion pedals, although I'd prefer a pickup with a tighter bass and more treble and upper mid response across the board.If they wired the pickups with 8 leads to give more wiring options, running the top and bottom pair in parallel might be the exact thing I'm looking for.Ease of installation:If you're only running them humbucker or split the wires are pre-soldered fairly nicely.I had to desolder them to work with my Ibanez dynamix system, however making things a touch more difficult. The paper was a little misleading with the wiring; the pair is Black-White and Red-Green, though the paper makes it look Black-Red and White-Green, I believe.The pickups are standard humbucker size, although they might be a little of a tight fit width-wise.They have plenty of wire to work with for long rout distances.Final thoughts:For about $15, they are absolutely fantastic. At this cost I might actually grab a second set to modify, being less expensive than practically every pickup kit out there, and I'd be far less worried about accidently breaking them.

High output, yes. I have 2 and they both 18 ohm. Mine are not microphonic what so ever. If they are wax potted, I have no way of knowing without complete disassembly, and that's not happening. I am impressed for the price. They are great for metal. and they sound real good for classic rock sound. When I run them on a clean channel, they are certainly better than I expected. If you get this pickup, go to lowes and get you some rubber grommets and replace the springs because the base is flat and the springs are too long. You won't be able to get it above your pick guard by even an 1/8th of an inch. Besides, rubber grommets are better for vibration control. Pinch harmonics are a snap with this pickup. I read the bad reviews and took a chance anyway. They are brighter and have a midrange tone. All I can say other than this is, don't be fooled by the price. If you get one that doesn't work, have them send you a new one. This pickup is a lot better than some are saying. I plan to get another one.

I have an $80 Mitchell MM10 mini shredder that I keep in my locker at work. Previously I had a Dimebucker laying around unused, so I popped that in and it was a big improvement in tone. Later I removed the DB to use in a real guitar, so I bought this cheap 4 rail humbucker to replace it. This pup sounds good for the money. Not as crisp as the DB but close, good pinch harmonics and ballsy metal tone. Perfect to soup up a cheap guitar. BUT, they sent the wrong screws, they didn't fit the holes in the pickups base. So I had to drill the holes out and use wood screws to mount the pickup, a pain in the ass. Wish I had bought the Invader clone pickup instead.
