Quality is not the best
First pair came with the legs bent 45º inwards, most probably due to the cable being too tight around them from factory. The baseplate metal is very thin thin and impossible to straighten back in shape without breaking the legs (my tech warned me they would break and of course it happened), apparently it's very common with SD pickups.
Thomann refunded me and I got another pair, which again had one of the legs slightly bent, not 45º like the previous but still enough to make it hard to screw it from the triple shot.
So 2 out of 2 pickups were not up to standards.
The sound instead is very good. For anybody that likes to play several genres with a single guitar it does the job remarkably well, especially the "Hot" version for the bridge.
In humbucker mode (Series & parallel) sounds great, same for the P90, while the single coil output is way too low to sound anywhere close to a real single coil guitar. I'd say this is the only weak point but P90 and humbucker modes are very good, which makes it a better option than splitting high output pickups to single coil, at least in this case the P90 is a killer.
