I have had this for a couple of months now. It's a really nice playing guitar with excellent fretwork. It came with an amazing setup from the store. Infact the only guitar I've played that was setup this well is MDV's Aurora. Super low action that really takes the effort out of playing. I have been struggling with the pickups on this one since I got it as the stock pickups that are made by Dimarzio in the US for Ibanez based on the Super Distortion and the Super2 aren't exactly bad but there is just something about them that isn't clicking. I have just decided to sell off a couple of my guitars which means that I have my favourite pickup set spare. The EMG JH set. So these will go in the RG and the single coil will be disconnected because single coils suck.

I stand by that statement. I have never found a use for them. They're weak and raspy sounding and they don't sound as good clean as an EMG 60A or a parrallel mid output humbucker IMHO.

I just did a count, I've got 5 Strats and a Tele and only one has a humbucker in it. And I use that split most of the time. Works for me, different strokes for different folks. It'd be a boring world if we all agreed about music.

Hey, thanks tony (All my guitars are set up as well as the aurora, I do it). Also, that's a beautiful guitar.

As long as we all agree that I'm right then everything's fine.

Bugger it. I'm going to pull the hetset out of my RGA and try them in this.
