That looks great! It looks much better with jaguar pickups, and I love the tort pickguard on there! I wish I had picked one of these guitars up before they were discontinued.
It's a little red for my tastes but it's not that big of a deal.
The middle pickup's output is pretty even with the others. My pickups aren't actually AVRIs (they're custom wound to slightly different specs), but I imagine that you wouldn't see a drastic difference.
The Cyclone II uses 500k pots and this fucker is BRIGHT AS HELL. It's too bright. I don't know if it's these pickups combined with the strat trem or what, but I will probably end up trying a 250k tone pot soon.
taylornutt: As you can see from the initial photos, the original pickguard has been routed out for those piece of shit pickups that were in it when I bought it. It also has some sharpie on it from when I screwed up while making the tracing, so it's not exactly in good shape. If you can pay for postage, though, it's yours.
