The SubZero model looks nicer to me. The Harley Benton looks a bit too busy for my taste. Do you have any experience with P90 pickups? The pickups might be easily changed for mini humbuckers if you do not like the sound of them.

Then maybe you should buy one and see if you like it Is there much price difference between the two guitars?

What are their returns policies?
Is it feasible for you to buy both and return the one you like less?

Go for the look you prefer, it's the thing you can't easily replace.

I wish I enevr sold my TE-90QM with the old Wilkinson P90's. These Roswell's are not to my taste, too thin. And the one in G&L Fallout were too gainy. Its same with the strat single coils so many models, winds, wires, magents ... ... I wouldn't judge any pickups not even Humbuckers as Im yet to find one I like but i know there must be some just need to find it And then there is wiring. My Irnostone TE pickups are just ok but when B+N are in Series then it becomes a BEASTY with great tone

Maybe P90s are not all the same then. Just different shades of terrible!

Dogs are known to have good ears but they don't work so well when we make guitar pickups out of them.

I think you're right, I'll follow my instincts, I can always count on the return if I'm not satisfied, the subzero does not seem so bad watching the video although many times the sounds are artifacts from other hardware (in this case, however, I do not think so)

Well it certainly looks nice to me. I like the color too. About the pickups. P90s are not for everyone. Some love them and others don't. Don't be put off by what was said earlier
