That's not a bad triplet at all!

Well I haven't had the Outlaw or the Vulcan long but the Invicta I've had for 20+ years.
The Outlaw plays the nicest on the neck.
The Invicta has the best pickups for anything that requires more-than average overdrive. It just sings-sustains-and has more grit than the other two (although it is a little thin). The Vulcan is close behind it. The Outlaw sounds the best clean or slightly over-driven. It pushes a nice rich sound.
In essence they go from smoothest to grittiest in a very 1-2-3 fashion. The Vulcan is probably the best all around one of the bunch.
Very happy with them all.

Great Facebook group, and great trio there. I have 2 of your 3. I have an Outlaw and a X-260 should be arriving soon.

Man, I was hoping to have the X-260 by today so I could play it at our gig tonight. Oh well...
