Do 2nd generation pickups (NG-2, NG-2 7S, SG-2, UK-2, UP-2, AP-2) have the same sound as 1st generation pickups (NG-1, NG-2 7S, SG-1, UK-1, UP-1, AP-1) or are they better?

Both 1st generation and 2nd generation pickups share the same piezo elements and the sound is the same. The only difference is the volume knob on the 2nd generation pickups.
