going by their review, guitar player seems to like them.
i can't say for sure what the next project will be; i have this to tackle first.
it's great fun, though that first draw of the fret saw, across a line measured to the thousandth of an inch, is a hold your breath moment.

that's why my custom bass will be fretless.

My friend was using them for a bit. Two in a 60's sg. I think what they make up in versatility, they don't quite sound as good as a well matched pickup/guitar combination. I think my friend ended up with some kind of Lindy Fralin eventually.
Also the extra wiring made the guitar noisier than it originally was, which was annoying for high gain stuff.
What kinds of sounds are you hoping to get? My all in one guitar solution was a les paul studio with Hum single Hum, coil switching, and an always on Neck pickup switch. but its noisy played loud under the lights.

ideally the best of all worlds though i realize that won't happen. they'll both be tapped using separate toggle switches and the guitar will have a three-way pickup selector. if necessary, i can reverse a magnet. i can also try different combinations of tapped hb's if i can't what i want from a pair.
