Title: I couldn't resist...

...buying an Irish Tour for the neck position of my Strat today!!!

It sounds great and complements the Nailbomb in the bridge position well, but I'm not surprised at all - maybe I'm already spoiled by BK quality, lol...

I just want to thank Tim and the BK people for this great product. :)

I installed it right after I arrived at home.

Nice clean but in-your-face sound, very ballsy. I only have a 1 Meg volume pot, which makes the IT sound even more aggressive and opens up its sound so that what I hear is a clear but LOUD single coil.

In parallel with the Nailbomb it produces a sound that's hard to describe. It has a certain sweetness, the Nailbomb seems to fill the midrange frequencies such in-between sounds usually lack. Imagine a stratty quack tone mixed with a little bit of the sound of a bridge humbucker. KILLER fusion tone!
