Highlights
Quality
The sound quality of my guitar (washburn n2) improved a lot and with my korg ax1500g the combination is amazing
Sounds great, definitely an upgrade, nice smooth, warm clean tones for times when that's appropriate
Note your old wiring lay-out, get your soldering iron, and you can have these in your guitar in just a few minutes.
Have bought this pickup used, several times, sold it several times and ended up with it again.
Price
I put this in my cheap prs termonti.
For the price, this is a great replacement part.
Please don't let the price fool you.
Shipping
Installed quickly earlier today, thanks to the wonderful wiring diagram in the box, and spent the rest of the day playing.
Packaging/appearance
As advertised - excellent quality, great packaging, awesome wiring instructions.
Competitiveness
The sh1 neck pick up has a more bell like chime compared to the sh2 which is a darker more jazzy sound.
But i still love the guitar and the pickup sounds way better than the stock prs pickup.
