I have tried NO other booster for the simple reason that I do not know. Here is an EMG, I bought "blind" with confidence in quality.

MOUNTING
He rode for two years on my Stratocaster equipped with a set of 3 pickups Kinman WOODSTOCK Regular.

IMPORTANT: be good handyman to mount it on his guitar! Careful, patient and orderly, otherwise it crashes all.
A stratovolcano is mounted with two tones, one must first turn in turn one and the other in general tone.

It should also provide space for the 9V: the circuit is active because it adds the signal! For a stratovolcano, we can manage to wedge between the tremolo springs in the back of the guitar. I use only two springs for my part, so it's possible.

A final technical note: my strat is armored, so a copper foil covering the whole cavity and the underside of the white plate. But the body of the TPS can not bear to be in contact with the masses! I have no explanation, but it is short-circuited. Result no sound and a battery that goes up to 50 ° C! Will surround the Knob Teflon to resolve the problem.

SOUND
TPS does not change a strat by Paul. Let's stop saying that.
He does what is stated in its title: it adds to the presence in the media. The win strato gain and then joined or exceeds the output level of a humbucker (Kinman's are already quite powerful). The sound is much more "forward", but the sound personality is preserved, it's pretty awesome!

By distortion, provided you have a strato silent (and therefore reinforced), we can attack from heavy to very heavy rock, get a very nice sustain.
In his clear, playing with the tone, you get a creamy sound, sweet. Surprising: with the neck pickup, SPC thoroughly and fairly low key, the strato some jazz ...

CONCLUSION
You'll understand that we must be patient to install this accessory, or have a friend available talented and nice. Hence my 7 / 10.
But the game worth the candle, my strat has possibilities tenfold. For some concerts, I set my ampi in crunch. I want the clear? I lower the volume. I want the crunch? I turn the volume up. I want the disto? ascends the SPC.
This little secret is Knob versatility.
