I own this exact pickup. I think the sound is pretty good as far as these things go but of course it isn't perfect. When I record I usually use the Markely pickup plus a mic pointed at the guitar from in front of the person playing it and mix the two together. So far I've gotten pretty good sound with this method.
Kind of a side note: My pickup has also developed a minor short in the cord that crackles uncontrollably every once in a while. I don't know if this is a typical problem with this model or with just something specific to mine but you may want to look around the web to see if you find any similar complaints.
