I've been using it for three years with my 'home-made' Strat. In bridge position, it works very well with SSL1-like single-coils because its output level is not too high for a well-balanced guitar signal. Nevertheless, its low frequency response is too weak for a Strat with stacked humbuckers, especially compared to hot rails pickups. Its name ("little 59") is a bit confusing since it has neither the output level nor the low-end response of a '59. As a summary, use it only with single coils in center and neck positions.
