I was under the impression for a long time that this pickup sucked, but I've changed my mind. For starters it was installed wrong, but that isn't the pickup's problem. The pickup head was in a weird place and totally overloaded a B note when I played it. But I had that fixed and now it sounds better. Keep in mind that most of my playing has been through a Micro Cube so that didn't help impressions. But when played through a nice amp and a preamp it sounds great. Really warm and smooth. The only problem is that you hear a lot of arm movement and any taps on the sound board are amplified a lot. I had a chance over the weekend to play with my friend's Fishman Solo Amp. Through a preamp (both my Fishman Pro EQ Platinum and an LR Baggs Venue DI - I still like my Fishman more) and my ME-50 effects pedal, it sounded awesome. Usually at home I don't plug in unless I need to because it sounds bad, but I would have played plugged in all day with the Soloamp.
If you can fork out for or have access to a nice amp and an outboard preamp, go for it, but if you are playing through a micro cube, don't expect a great sound.
