Keith Merrow's signature sound is captured brilliantly here. These pickups offer a surprising amount of tonal variety for a 7-string, easily switching between vintage PAF, airy cleans, and aggressive single-coil tones. They’re a solid choice for progressive rock, fusion, and players who need a versatile, high-output solution without excessive noise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pulling the tone pots changes the voicing, but doesn't alter the output level; the signal remains consistent across all three voices.
Absolutely; the higher output handles lower tunings well, maintaining clarity and punch without becoming muddy.
Standard alkaline 9V batteries work fine, but a rechargeable battery pack (like Fishman’s) is a convenient and eco-friendly option.
