Here's a review from Ben of Novice Nation who uses Porter Pickups:
"I tossed these overdrive pickups in my Firebird. I was blown away by the clarity and attitude. It cut through well, but wasn't overly distorted. For me, honestly, distortion is sometimes the wrong word to use. I like the aggressiveness of this pickup, but it is somehow clear at the same time. I think it's simply because it just sounds RIGHT. It's mean and loud, but it's a mature sound. it gives a good amp, a proper signal. It improved the forwardness of my sound a lot too, and with out the brittle sound you usually get from cheap "distortion" pickups. Sweeeeet.Thanks!"
