I just needed a tele neck to go with a bridge humbucker. I figured the ceramic would be a little harder sounding and it kinda is. I put it with a schecter PT bridge pick up, the one with 12 fat pole pieces. They don't look similar at all but they compliment each other very well. It's like 8k ohms, it's four wire so you can split it but I usually find that unsatisfying. Sometimes I like parallel, definitely makes them smoother, but I don't see much point in coil cutting this type of pickup. Anyway, if you need a cheap humbucker to fit in a tele neck this is really nice! I'd do again and very likely will.

Rails should be wider, even just making the rails/bobbins 1/16" wider would make a big difference. My strings are right on the edge of the rails and the low E has some volume drop. The pickup sounds pretty good otherwise. If you have narrower string spacing these will work OK.

You can't get the glassy sound we love in single coils out of this pickup, but it eliminates the buzzing and grinding like only a humbucker can. Good solution for noise. Good compromise

The rails are not wide enough to cover he low and high E strings. There is a noticeable loss of power and response on both the strings.

It’s just a great pickup. I trimmed the top coil edges and fitted a nickel cover on it, after I filed the rails flat.
