They sure feel great. I had an SE Custom 22 for a short time (it was about 10 years old, no bird inlay) and found the pickups to be very blah. The fit, finish, playability and sustain were all there though. I haven’t played newr models or even the S2 stuff though. If I was one to tinker I’d hsve dropped different pickups in it in a heartbeat and had a blast. They can be had for a steal used. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a used SE to a new player.
