I like em! I too am a big fan of noiseless or low-noise single coils. Not a fan of the pure vintage thing (especially not with any decent level of gain). I thought the middle pickup sounded particularly good. The bridge didn't have the ice pick thing that Strats often suffer from. If there's a negative, I thought that the neck pickup sounded like the tone control was rolled back a bit. Perhaps a regular SV5 at the neck would do the trick.
