Hmm interesting. Well now I am officially pissed off. What is the point of removing 60 cycle hum if you are going to get horrendous feedback? Maybe that is why B.L's are so inexpensive. I bought these for my wife for Christmas and just got them installed recently and I told her how great they are suppose to be. We played a gig Saturday night and they squealed all night long. She had to adjust her amp so the distrotion channel was just barely breaking up, kinda like when a tube screamer is on about 1/3 of the way and it was still on the verge of squealing. If she forgot and turned to face her amp, it would make that horrible howl.
The other thing that pisses me off is the 298 is still listed as being $48.00 when in reality they are charging $68.00. You would think they could at least make the price right on their own website. Technically that is false advertising and they have had more than enough time to change it.

Well, any suggestions for GOOD NOISEFREE pickups?

Oh by the way. I had the same problem with my B.L's and this local guitar wiz did a massive shielding job etc (Which he charged a pretty penny for) and although they don't squeal they are not what they are made out to be.
