My review
I purchased mine back in 1996. It's been my main choice for both studio & stage. I upgraded to Gibson's Burstbucker Pro pickups recently. It is a solid guitar and a solid investment.

This pickup won't make your acoustic sound like a molded bodied Ovation type, which I can't stand, seeing as how it's magnifying the sound of the strings at the sound-hole, not the bridge. One of the better acoustic pickups, but now a bit archaic in design. It is prone to feedback at stage volume, I recommend using a noise-gate.

I've had these installed on several guitars and they always great. The single coil feature is similar to what you'll get by coil-tapping a humbucker, not what you'd get from a Fender Strat. The overall sound is smooth and sustain, plentiful. Not a feedback friendly pickup, which is great for live shows, unless severe feedback induced harmonics are your thing.

My review
These strings offer great bending capabilities (esp. on fixed bridge guitars). When they're first installed they can sound a bit bright (though some people like this), but they start to blend well after a week of use. The smoother tone of a used string sounds better to me when I'm recording. I don't generally feel I need to replace strings unless they're broken, or when they no longer stay in tune.
