Yes, particulary the new pickups: are they better ? I had the previous one and didn't like the V8, no balls, poor definition imho.
For luthery and hardware I think they're the same but you can always find different tones in same models.
You could edit your thread title with MTM2, good infos and pics if someone searching after this model.
imo the new and the older pickups are better at different things. The V7 and V8, did pretty nice cleans but they didn't have the best gain tone. Whereas the Duncans could get a better gain tone but not a good clean tone... If you are going to get one, I suggest you swap the pickups out and then you'll have a pretty sweet guitar.
