Pup recommendation for a Ghostrider


I just got an Ibanez Ghostrider with 2 Humbucker size pu's and I'm not sure I like the p/u combo.
The bridge p/u is so so ...but the neck p/u has got to go....way too weak.
The height is fine so that's not the problem....I don't know what's in the guitar now ( I'm assuming there stock).
Any body got the perfect ( or close ) match for Heavy Rock and clean ?
I don't know much about pickups but I'm willing to learn.
Thanks.

Re: Pup recommendation for a Ghostrider


I own a ghostrider-its the opposite of most guitars on this forum-set neck,fixed bridge,mahogany body and short scale(24 3/4). Whatever works in a gibson style guitar will work in a ghostrider. If you like Duncans try a 59n and a JB or Custom combo. I use Di Marzios : Paf Joe(N) and a Breed(B). Mahogany guitars are very thick sounding and pickups that sound harsh in other guitars work very well. Some questions: do you use really high gain sounds(death metal/shred)? Are you into a more traditional sound?

These are both great recommendations. Although they are opposite ends of the spectrum.

I have both, and I like both.
