From the review:

| Whether I am playing 100 notes per minute or 1500 notes per minute, each note is dynamically perfect and audible without the notes bleeding together. |
1500 notes per minute is 25 notes per second, and all without bleeding together! That there's some pickup, alrighty.  |

| "Amazingly aggresive, yet well defined". Ha, ha. Anyone want to buy a bridge? You heard of the Lace Snsor pickup? I'm coming out with the "Shoe Lace" pickup. Its "Amazingly defined, yet very aggressive". |

| I don't know how it sounds, maybe great... but it's still sure the ugliest pickup I've ever seen... |

The basic design looks a bit like some Danny Shields pickups I've seen. The neodymium magnet might have a very cool sound. Its properties are very close to alnico although more stable. The red is a colored coating that is on all copper wire used for pickups. Most use a clear coating.
I use the same adjustable pole piece concept in the Tonealigner pickups I make. The adjustment instructions they have on there site are maybe a bit pretentious but explain it pretty well.

The clear plastic looks like a casting to me so it sould be very simple for them to make a black one.

I actually think they look pretty cool, but if you showed up at a jam session around here with pink pickups on your guitar you'd better be able to play like the dickens, dude - guitarists can be so unkind.
