The Artec pickups are under the Giovanni Series of electronics, manufactured for electric guitars. These are very affordable pickups available at Amazon. Magnets used are either Alnico II / V. The high powered GHXTN model here features Alnico V magnets.

Both the bridge & neck pickups manifest clarity we often hear coming from notable brand names which list for much more. The bridge pickup, would appease all the distortion fiends out there, especially the ones who peddle heavy music. The clarity of the neck humbucker is useful for solos. A strong midrange / treble response is heard coming from both models & on this note, the clean tones on offer are acceptable & would require some modulation (e.g. chorus) to mitigate a more appealing response. Certainly not the pickups to get for jazz.
