I have the 705 on both of my Mullen's. Love the sound.

I'd choose either a 705 (they sound great in both modes, and in a non-hummy room, you can switch back to single coil) or a ToneAligner.

I own a G2 and tried a number of pickups. It all comes down to what vibe you prefer. I settled on a George L (EON) pickup that gives me a happy medium for E9 and B6.

Here is a short demo on the B9 organ machine and I demo the G2 with a pedal steel sound before I kick in the organ machine. The pickup is a hum bucker and is dead quiet. I am also using a Hilton VP.
