Nice.  I used to have a RY set but replaced the bridge with an ABomb for added ooomph.  The neck RY is superb.  Not usually a neck pickup fan (seems to be a common theme) but the RY I really really like.  Have put the NB/RY in my custom at the moment and it just sounds great (pic below).  Congrats on the pickups.

Interesting review. They sounded much warmer and darker than I expected.

I don't tend to like things too bright and that's especially been the case since I got the Crawler so as a result I've generally dismissed the Rebel Yell as being too bright but perhaps the EQ chart doesn't tell the whole story. May a lot of the mids are low mids, giving it a darker and warmer sound than the EQ chart suggests. I may have to reconsider my view of the Rebel Yell.

Yeah I really want to get a crawler some day.  I think it would suit one of my strats well.  It was also one of the first pickups of bk's that I took notice to
