String to string balance seems good. Note separation is excellent. Shred fiends will love it.
Maybe, it would be worthwhile developing a non-exclusive version of these NGF humbuckers for owners of regular mid-price Fender, Epiphone and Ibanez instruments?
I'm still holding out for high-output noiseless singles of some kind...
Achieving good string balance, particularly on multiscale instruments was a design parameter of the Neo GF ... as was note separation without sacrificing warmth and musicality. At 9.2 and 12.7k I think these are certainly more versatile than just a tool for 'shred fiends'.
I'm currently developing a variant of the Neo GF in seven string 'active mount' with a possible view to making limited quantities available for, for example: Strandberg Boden players.
Ha :-) I really only will build 'noiseless singles' when I believe I have a technology that will really make them sound like single coils ... I've never encountered a 'noiseless single' that wasn't compromised on tone through hum cancelling.

What I really want is a hum-cancelling pickup that sounds identical to a Red Lace Sensor. I'm not sure that's even possible
Rails pickups have two coils that both contribute to the sound, are fully hum cancelling, and if not overwound can do a pretty good impression of a single coil ... HOWEVER ... guitarists simply can't get over their looks when compared with a conventional Strat pickup ... that's why I stopped making them.
