Great post, Jimmy. I have an X7 with a VTC on the way that I'm looking forward to putting through its paces.

I also have an X20 custom build due in October that I elected to go with the K&K for simplicity sake and also because it's been my go-to pickup for all my guitars when I have the choice. It will be nice to A/B their performance although there will be the difference of body size.

As to your question above, I have always had to EQ any and every pickup I've owned. For me this is more about the way I play (fingerstyle with no nails) than the guitar or pickup itself. I always need to dial the trebles way up to compensate for the soft tone of no pick or nails. Mids and Lows vary depending on amp, guitar and room.
