tempted to get a lundgren model m...

I've been loving the tone I'm getting from my Blaze bridge pickup, but lately i've been listening to lots of lundgren model m clips and those things just sound AMAZING, huge low end, clarity and high end like that of an emg, and to my ears they sound scooped but not in the way you lose all your mids and have a teeny sound. I would SO throw one of those in my 7321, but the only problem is they are so damn expensive and I don't know if it'd be worth 200 dollars...what would you guys say? Stick with my blaze bridge or go for the model m? Also, anybody have any idea how the model m compares to the blaze bridge in terms of output and EQ/tone?

Also, I see they have a neck/bridge set of model m's for sale on conklin's website, anybody have experience with their neck model? What's the tone/eq like on that, and the output?

Fuck it, you only live once!

I say go for it. Then, you can tell us if it's worth. Yeah, I'm an antigonizer. SPEND YOUR MONEY! SPEND IT, I SAY!

Yeah, I've been wondering the exact same thing - as a replacement for the Blaze on my UV. I suspect the EQ curve on these would be similar (somewhat scooped), but like you said - just more of everything good.
I'm thinking of a complete new pickguard assembly with a Lundgren bridge, no middle sc, and an Air Norton neck. But the tearing question remains - are the lundgrens worth it?
