it gets a little boring but i think it gives a good idea. ALSO, i took this video before i got my tele completely figured out with the pickup height so keep in mind, i later got it set to be a bit closer to the strings and a bit hotter.

hope this is informative!

Great comparison video.

I was a little surprised that the Piledriver didn't sound hotter but then I read your note about the height

For me I really like the Rebel Yell and the Stockholm but the Mule is a lovely sounding pickup for stuff that I don't play very much.

I really like the sound of the Piledriver.

Have you kept the pots stock on your guitars? It's probably because of the 300k pots I had in my V (and the difference between the guitars' construction) but the Rebels sound a tiny bit less mid-focused than they did in my V.

Great sounds all round, tidy stuff :)
