I've got the Seymour Duncan lipstick's in my Strat. No issues with the output, or fit. What I like about them is that they go from a clean sound to breaking up nicely depending on how hard I play.

Are they on Longhorn? If they are, wow. I wouldn't have believed it. Real nice.
Hey Noel,
They are indeed featured on most of the tracks on Longhorn, plus some on Bang Howdy Partner. The bass on Longhorn is a Korean era Dano Longorn (album title) My Strat plus originally came with Lace Sensors, which I grew to dislike. I'm much happier with the lipsticks. I also have an original one p-up Dano, and a Hodad Baritone. Lipsticks are my fave!
A big part of the sound is amp choice as well (50/50 I estimate). And the player, of course.

I would agree 100% with this statement. In my Princeton and Bronco, my Dano has much more of a "twangy" sound out of the pickup, where through my Reverberocket II it has much more of a "chime" (almost 60's british sound). I think the pickups do lend themselves to being very dynamic because you can play them through most anything and keep it clean and bright, whereas hotter pickups sometimes get a little muddy when turned down.
