Q-tuners pickups really please to me
First of all, their design is wonderful, like no other pickups
And about the sound, the samples I've heard on their website was very good ! Perfect medium and harmonics  Just like the sound of Steve Vai
I will tell you what I think of those pickups once I will get my new guitar ^^ |
