It is really hard to look up info on these pickups because of how the "S" doesn't really factor into the search well.
How close is each one to its full-sized counterpart and how are they compared to each other, if anyone knows?

I can only give you a rough comparison between Super Distortion and Super Distortion S, and even though I had them in different guitars to my ears they sound nothing alike. The S version has a lot less power and none of that sizzle that the full size model has (and which in some guitars can manifest as an annoying buzz). On the other hand, I found the S to have a nasal quality to it. However, the guitar it was in may well have attributed to that factor as the Chopper showed and now the Kinman Big Nine-O shows a similar nasal quality (all with 500k pots) which for example the Virtual Solo in my other strat does not show in the least.
Never played the Tone Zone S.

Thanks. I am noticing that there are lots of review of the FT2 and a fair amount of the TZ S, but very few for the Super Dist S. That might say everything that there is to say considering it isn't a new pickup.
