No, it doesn't sound like a Gibson mudbucker, it just looks similar. It does lack clarity because it's overwound almost as much as the Gibson, but the internal construction is completely different. It's very heavy in the midrange, I'd call it aggressive, which the Gibson isn't. It's got its own thing going.
I don't have a suggestion as to what to put it in, just remember that the polepieces are spaced for placement way up by the neck. If you were to put it at the bridge position you might run into problems, I don't know how those CuNi Fe magnets would handle misalignment.
