Neat - altho' the string/polepiece spacing may not be suitable.

Ceramic magnets are a hell of a lot brighter sounding than alnico. Lose some of that warmth which cannot be found by turning the tone control back.

Oh, and by the way for anyone that may be interested the string spacing is 10mm on one and 11mm on the other.
