Very pleased
I just soldered in the Virtual Solo into the bridge position of an alder/rosewood strat. I am going direct into the front of a Marshall JCM800.
I am very happy with the sound. I would say that the tone is half way between a P90 and a strat pickup. Further more there is no hum! I prefer it to the Paul Gilbert Injector bridge. The Virtual Solo has a fuller sound to it. The clean tone is also very good, and the pickup keeps its dynamics with soft and harder picking.
If you want a noiseless strat pickup with guts to it, this is the one, and your guitar will still look and sound like a strat :)

Great pickup
Installed this in bridge position of my strat and I am very pleased with it. I'd say it is between "vintage" and "overwound" sounding - which is great for my needs and very versatile.
Area 61 I had previously in bridge position was great for blues and low gain, but was not powerful enough for heavier stuff. I moved Area 61 to middle position and got this one for bridge. Virtual Solo can do both low gain bluesy and heavy rock sounds + there is zero hum.
