not really...

1. i like having one global volume knob (it actually took me awhile to get used to the vol/vol/tone on my hellraiser)

2. i don't like how EMG's sound with the tone rolled down. I actually only use the tone rolled down a bit for playing cleans with the neck PU. Gotta love the sound of the SD-Jazz like this.

Yes. It's pretty much identical. I have an 85 in my bolt-on alder-bodied parts-guitar and two 89s in my mahogany-bodied neck-thru SLSMG... and they sound as similar as two identical pickups in dramatically different guitars can sound.

Nice score. I like that it doesn't have the "seven" inlay on the neck.

Yeah the "seven" inlay on the MTM1 looks like arse... but it is a thru-neck and comes standard with blackouts.

Loktide, your MTM2 looks awesome

Yup, go for the 89 in it. Mine has some odd wiring courtesy of 7dt, my favourite position for leads is a combination of the 81 and the SA in the neck.
