I actually have one of these on the way my interest was peaked. This will go head to head against the B&B L500XL.

I hope you like them and they are a good fit sonically for your guitar.

I hear a little more clarity and some more lowend with the Jupiter bridge P/U. Like you said I won't know until it's in the guitar if it lives up to what I am hearing in the comparison video. To my ears the Jupiter sounds like Dime/Nuno tone with more clarity and low end definition which I prefer over my experience with the BLUSA L500XL which is kinda thin on lows.

I got my Wes Hauch Jupiter 6 string p/u the other day, it is very well built and is pretty nice, the baseplate is satin black metal and metal feet for adjusting which I definitely prefer to the plastic feet on the L500XL's. 8-)

I'm looking forward to hearing this, now I have to get going on pressing in the floyd bushings then drilling/installing the pickup rings but I have a few things to take of first.

Sweet! It is coming together bit by bit. It would be fantastic if everything falls in place right the first time and it all turns out glorious.
