i have the super high z in the neck of my xiphos and i love it...VERY clear, perfect for neck p/u leads and probably clean also but i don't really do much of that haha. their worth the money...

They look mental, think from seeign them on the site they would look more at home in a Xiphos than an old Green Universe say.... guess thats the differnet style magnets that give it such a clear sound?? dunno not the greatest when it comes to pick up geekdom tbh... Good to know they are worth considering tho, cheers mate :yesway:

I have the Hi-Z and Super in my SC420. Definitely worth the money. Great cleans! It's actually mostly the coils that give a pickup its tone. Magnets really mostly effect output. More winds = higher resistance and less treble, I.E. darker pickup with more output. Less winds and a strong magnet = hot pickup that's brighter. At least this is my understanding and obviously there's more depth to it than this. And there can be any combination of the above. What makes the Q-Tuner so accurate is amount of poles and the windings being closer to the strings as well as the magnet being inside the coil instead of near it. The design integrates all of the components into the magnetic field better. They sound great and I'll recommend them to anyone. Strangely enough, I like the Blaze II's in my UV better... Go figure.:scratch:
