I've never tried BKs. They seem very hyped up though, do they deserve it?

YES.

The thing about pickups is that it's hard to leave one once you've found one you really like. I'm a Seymour Duncacn TB-6 man through-and-though and would be pretty hesitant to splash out on any other model or brand of pickup. I have toyed with the idea of trying a DiMarzio Super Distortion though.

It's all about what fits the guitar man.

I finally got a TB6 a few months ago and it is fucking awesome, glad I waited, got it for £30 with postage from US aswell

I would say no to the DiMarzio... I tihnk they sound poo, especially considering the tone of the TB6

In my opinion yes, you just can't beat hand scatter wound with superior parts, also the fact that you can customize it to get it sound exactly how you want aswell just by messaging Tim over the forum.
Yeah they're a bit more expensive but they are pretty much custom hand made pick ups.

To my ears Seymours sound to tinny and thin, but then i do use Warpigs.

But everyones different, as long as your happy with your tone it shouldn't matter what you use.
