Ummm, no.
Just the thought of my fat ass in a dress would scar minds and cause half the membership to have PTS issues for years to come...my insurance can't handle that...LOL.
I've been playing the R7 with the '57 Protos in in it a bit more recently, and found that when I played my R9 this week I really missed the tone; kind of like finding an old pair of sneakers in the closet--you put them on, and it's "Ahhhh..."
Both of the pickups are incredible in their own right; the neck just growls and screams, while the neck pickup is a crooner; crisp highs, not too woofy, with a very vocal-like quality.
It really shines in the middle OOP position though. Personally I like it best with some amp drive on it; that's just my playing style. The guitar takes on a whole new personality--it's hard to describe, but everyone that plays it says the same thing. Their eyes light up, they turn to look at me, look back at the guitar, then start riffing.

Honestly--every person that's played it has done this.
The tone cuts through like a knife. Lovely nasally honk, a bit less low end, and crisp highs. You really have to hear it to believe it.
I know some other guys have said they have "THE" PG pickups, but honestly--these pickups are the dog's bollocks.

Best pickups I have ever bought, even when compared to Will's other 6707 pickups.
