Great when coil split :D
Im not one for using a neck humbucker to often as I play a lot of very hard rock / metal and they always sound just a bit too dark and muddy to my ears.
I put this in a Ibanez RG350DXZ with a basswood body, and even though its supposed to be a bit brighter than the PAF its still a bit dark in humbucker config for my taste, but that's probably just me.. So if you are like me I think the PAF Joe is brighter again and may be the one to go for.
Single coil split its awesome though. Single coil tone, but big and warm. Also there's very little volume drop from when in humbucking config.

Sublime
I bought this and a Mo' Joe to re-awaken my old Ibanez S from the depths of slumber with it's ok stock pickups. Well what a difference these have made!
Installation was reasonably straight forward (although I was replacing more than just pickups). Be aware that my Ibanez stock pickups had the white wire as hot and the red as coil split whereas Dimarzio are the other way round.
The sound of this in the neck position is sublime. With a clean sound this has a very balanced amount of bass which doesn't muddy even with gain. For solos this really sings with incredible sustain yet all the dynamics of your pick attack remains intact.

My goto pickup
I have fitted these to three guitars and they all sound much better for it. No cons I could find

Great pickup
The Dimarzio Paf Pro is a wonderful pickup. Balanced and articulate, the slightly accentuated upper mid gives it a great sound especially for leads. It fits pretty much in any guitar and does a great job everytime. I also use it with a gain boost to boost the output a bit and it kills!
