Where to get my hands on QM1 QMS1 and QM2 pickups?

[rdm]

Can anyone point me in the right direction? New or used is fine by me.

Well, they show up on éBay every time someone decides to swap out the pickups in their S540LTD, and a few of the other S-series. Go for pennies, too, just keep an eye out!

(I love these pickups too, by the way. Easily my favorite stock pups. We had a little chat in here about them recently, the thread shouldn't be far away.)

[rdm]

Yeah....been searching there. Just missed a set. I've seen the QM1 and QM2 listed in past auctions.....but haven't found the QMS1 anywhere.

[rdm]

Are there any replacement pups that are close the the Ibz Quantum pickups?

[ibanez otaku]

Well that's why I started the other thread.

Inconclusive, though. They don't seem to be based on a particular DiMarzio, for example. Shame. Lovely pups.

[rdm]

Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah....I'm really looking for those exact pups. Not sure if something "close" would cut it. Thanks again.

[rdm]

If I can't find them used....are they still being made by Ibanez? If so...I guess I'll just order them from a dealer.

Hey rdm, i was pretty sure i had at least one full set but i might've given some pickups away (it happens) or thrown some stuff out and not really kept any memory of doing it (also happens.)

turns out i only have a qm2 and a qms1 with no cover on it. if you're into em, you're more than welcome to them. pm me if so.
