Anyone tried them yet?

I'm wondering if these have anything to do with the Phil X sig. Since he is a massive fan of the alnico eights.

10k (ish) - A8 - Wax Potted - sounds interesting...

This feels like a lecture when Dinesh is sitting down during the explanation parts. “Son, we’ve got to have a talk about this Alnico 8 your mother and I found in your bedroom”.

I'm interested but keeping my hopes in check since there aren't that many great Gibson pickups. Also kind of hard to justify $150 per pickup when you can get a Duncan JB or a DiMarzio Super Distortion for $99 each. Even the Duncan Alternative 8, using the same magnet and a 15-17k wind is $115.
