This is my 4th build with Planet Tone pickups, and my 2nd with the Poundcake Humbucker. I am truly impressed by the quality of build and performance of all so far, but this one in particular is my new favorite. Loud but still clear and articulate, with great harmonics and overtones. Super sustain and great tone. Will definitely use again in my high output guitars. Thanks for a great product. Bill @ Bonny Guitars.
