I put a GFS Alnico V mini HB in th neck position of a MIM Tele.
Sounds pretty good for the price.

I replaced all my stock gibson pups with different GFS pup configs, all sound exactly like the description. These things really SHINE at high volume though, really nice on a tube amp with little to no extra feedback.

The only one that can get a little loud is the high output PAF's but it's wound at something like 14k, and still is quieter then a duncan distortion or the like.

And lets not even talk price, its a non-issue. These are recession pups - buy em worst case you can ebay them if you dont like em, you will though.
