phenomenal
In one word, the SD Antiquities are phenomenal. I've installed these on a Harley Benton CST and I thought the original pickups were good, but I wasn't sure how much the tone would improve with other pickups. Well, turns out it can. A lot.
The CST is now one of the few guitars that I have that work equally well through both my H&K Tubemeister, as well as an Engl Ironball (I'm only talking about lead channel here with everything at 12 o'clock). On the H&K, it's a really sweet kind of overdrive with fantastic harmonics, great sustain and it's really sensitive to picking dynamics. Great for blues and such. On the Engl, the tone is considerably different and turns to something more like a Joe Satriani type tone. It sounds a bit thicker and smoother, it's somewhat less pick sensitive (unless you manipulate the volume control), but in both cases, it sounds absolutely fantastic.
Still not sure whether I'll switch to a thicker sounding bridge pickup, but I think I've found my new favorites. Well done, Seymour Duncan!

Marvelous dark tone
The Antiquity P90 is a bit darker sounding compared to e.g. Lollar P90 which is another good sounding P90 in my opinion. The SD antiquity has a transparent and lively single coil tone, with a dash of natural distortion in the PU ( as I understand) when played hard, probably due to some pole piece demagnetization.
Think it best suits use with a simple amp setup, amp directly driven from guitar+volume pot. Have not tried it with pedals.
I have used it on an LP Custom and an LP JR style guitar with very satisfying tonal result. Plan to use one in neck position on a T style, don't know the result yet.
