Has anyone tried one of these Krivo magnetic jobs?

They look nicely discrete compared to the Schaller, and they have a no-screws mounting.

Thoughts?

I had one and liked it a lot. Had to send it back tho as the connections became faulty and the output dropped considerably. In fairness to Jason Flores, who makes them, he refunded $100 out of my $160 which I thought was fair as I think it was at least a year after I had the pickup that I had a fault with it. He had offered to replace the pickup entirely, then touring and life got in the way so I agreed to a refund.

I now have a Schaller but didn't have them both at the same time to A/B them. If memory serves well I don't recall there being a big difference in tone or volume. A good pickup for sure tho. Plus it has the advantage of not needing to be screwed into place, therefore transferable.
