I'd second that the Strandberg OEM pickups are surprisingly - uninspiring? Disappointing! - for a guitar that's otherwise built from fairly high end components. I actually decided to get the standard 6 to save a few bucks with the plan to swap pickups immediately. I'm glad I went that way.Sorry, let me reiterate. My buddy has a Strandberg 6 with Fluences and loves them. He just got a Strandberg 7 with Strandberg branded passives, and they don’t sound great. I played it this last weekend and agree. He is looking for passive replacements in the 7 that would be similar to what he loves about the Fluences in his 6.
