Hello there... I'm new to the forum, and got my first Ibanez today after being a Jackson and Fender user for years. I was forced to return my fairly new Jackson DK2M because there was a problem with the tremolo system I couldn't fix, and since DK2M's are out of stock in the UK I decided to buy...

For Sale: Parts guitar: UV7BK (Black/Green). General condition: 7.5/10 Please note that this is a parts Universe: This guitar was put together from an original Ibanez UV7Bk neck and original Ibanez UV7Bk body originally bought from littlegreenman. Description: Neck: In good shape, frets...

hi. i have an Ibanez Prestige RGA 121 NWF as you can tell by my user name. I want to replace the stock pickups with something that sounds BETTER. I play rock, hard rock, and metal. What pickups do you guys suggest?? I was thinking maybe a pair of Active EMGS likw 81 85 or 81 60 or some combo...

I picked up this quilted brown RG-520 used today at GC. It's in pretty good shape aside from the typical finish wear on the trem and whatnot and some moderate fretwear. It's still shiny and had the plastic on the trussrod cover. I most likely paid too much but I've been wanting a mahogany RG...

Are they meant to be replaced? I have one Edge tremolo that has a "loose" knife edge that falls out of the little side slot whenever I take the tremolo off the body to clean the fretboard, etc. Are they supposed to be this loose? If not, should I try super gluing it into the slot?

O.K. This is what my dream switching set-up would look like on my 1570, but I only have experiance replacing a few pickups in the stock configuration. So here goes: Position 1(All the way towards neck): Neck Full humbucking Position 2: Neck Split/Middle Single Position 3(Middle):Neck and...

My S1520 with a split 5way has a problem. The guitar sounds fine in all positions 1,2,3 (neck HB, neck split, both HB) and even 4 both HB split but....in the 5th position (bridge HB only) the output drops dramatically. It's wierd that it sounds fine split but not in full series. So is it...

Hi Folks, I have an Ibanez RG 320FM, and am looking to get much better pickups. Based on the research I have done, I conclude that the "safest" bet is to put a PAF Pro in the neck and a Super Distortion in the bridge. I have read in a couple of areas that the Evo's and Breed's are not suited...

ok.. Evo2 in the bridge, single coil that can coil split(like a virtual vintage) in the neck.. i have a 5 way switch but could get something different..even pushpulls etc what can i do? lol i was thinking 1st position=all neck,2nd=neck split,3rd=neck split+bridge split,4th=??,5th=full bridge...

Help! My jem took a nose dive and the neck split in three. Im looking for a Rose wood replacement. Don't care about inlays as long as the neck is straight and frets arent worn.

First question! I've got three humbuckers, and a 5 way switch that I'd like to do the following with: Position 1 Bridge Humbucker only Position 2 Bridge and middle humbucker together Position 3 Middle only Position 4 Neck and middle together Position 5 Neck only Can't figure out how I can get...

Hi guys, new user here. I have a USRG30 with stock pickups and dimarzio 5 way multipole switch, ( DiMarzio parts number EP1112 I believe ) and I'd like to know if anybody here knows any other wiring schematics besides the one they had available on the DiMarzio website. I have mine setup with...

Is it possiable to wire a Rg550 into something like the JPM model?

I'm looking to get an ibanez guitar... I was looking into the RG570. How is this guitar with changed pickups? What are some Jems that might are good? Should I go for neck-through or bolt-on? Is there much difference? I play 80's metal and Prog rock like Dream theater. I don't want to spend too...

Just curious if anyone has played around with pup sets in finding the coolest, most versatile set (single coil size). I recently played a buddy's eric clapton strat & was really blown away at how the TBX worked with the pups to take it "over the top". Is there any other sets of pups that might...

In the past I know there have been people here who have taken there guitars on the plane with them. My only question is how do you all get away with it? Seems like anytime I try they give me a hard time :x I'm going on vacation and I've got to take a guitar with me so I can practice! Thx.
