Can you play it through a real tube amp, or will it just squeal like a pig?

I believe he's playing it through a RHodes Collosus which is a mighty fine valve amp!

Edit: Just read the info. It's actually a Rhodes Gemini. Again a nice amp.

That pickup is that hot that you can easily fry an egg on it! :D

but jokes aside, It`s not my taste either. I know that Juggs are not even half as hot, but even in those modern djent style clips, Juggs sounded far way better.
Going for so compressed sound I would rather pick active EMGs, not passive monster like that.

to be honest I didnt dig the sound of these at all . soudns like what I grew tired of with the blackhawks times 10
