Tone Riders get a big thumbs up from me, used them in a Strat, a tele, the teardrop and a Vee. Happy with them all.
Have Entwhistle Darkstars in one build but I don't play it enough to really say I've bonded with them. I might do a switch and put them into something else.
I've used GFS pick ups in a lot of builds, mostly because of price and the different styles they offer. I'm happy with them all although they do tend to all sound very similar. I've used their fitertrons, lipsticks,Deamond,Jazzmaster , normal humbuckers and Gold Foils.Their Jazzmaster pick ups are very nice for the money, nice and bright , just right for surf.
I have Kent Armstrong mutherbucker in the DM-1 and love it, it has some real bite and with the switching I used I can go from 1 to 2, 3 or 4 coils. I'm using one of their single coil sized humbuckers in a single pick up strat build atm, should be interesting.
