I just want to replace the tone and volume pots on my old old RG550. But when I made a search I found 2 sizes: dime and quarter. What size should I guess? Any suggestion would be appreciate!! BTW the body is in green with maple neck, blue EVO bridge and pink PAF pro neck. What color of pickguard...

I am wondering where on the pickups (humbuckers and middle single coil) you can find some numbers or something to identify the pickups. I want to make sure my pickups where stock and I am skeptical about the middle pickup. There are no numbers on the back of it, is it possible to identify it at all?

As most of you know I've been looking for a Ibanez RG770DX. Well I haven't found one but I came across an excellent condition '92 770 at music go round outside of Pittsburgh. Called the guy today who sent me some pics and he said it was put on the floor last night. I couldn't pass it up great...

I've had an X2N in my trustworthy maple-boarded RG550 for quite some time now, but I've never been too fond of it. Way too shrill and icepicky. I've finally decided to look for something else, and I've narrowed it down to three options: 1) PAF Pro 2) Air Zone 3) Tone Zone I had an old RG770...

I've been trying to make this for the longest time. I bought this about eight months ago. The original had a nasty crack so I had to replace the guitar. Since then, I haven't had time to work with school, work, and uncooperative weather. I finally had time. I only have to do some touch up and...

Hi, I'm trying to decide which pickups get to finish my guitar project, a RG2570 customized (basswood body, maple neck annd ebony fingerboard), my playing style is progressive metal (like Dream Theater, Symphony X, Evergrey...) and I was wondering if a set of Breeds will work for sweep picking...

I dropped a Jem set I got in a lucky buy into an RG that I actually own. I am pretty sure the set came from a JEM777VBK. I posted about them in a thread elswhere. Anyhow. I believe this is the Paf Pro set and the middle single coil is way weaker than my S1 that was in there prior. The...

I like personalizing my guitar, what mods or ideas do you guys have for me? This is probably the most inventive guitar community I've seen, I can't wait to see what you've got. I'm already looking into changing the pickups, so stuff besides that. The guitar in question:

Because of pickups I have currently available to me without having to buy anything else, I was just wondering what you guys thought of using an Evolution neck pickup in the bridge spot with a PAF Pro in the neck position. This will be going into an alder body guitar with a wrap around type...

Hi there.. I Have an Ibanez RG 550 series, and this is my first time to change the pickups from the original ones.. After reading the dimarzio comparision charts I finally decided for a Tone Zone at Bridge Position and Evolution at Neck.. will be a good match?? About the middle pickup which...

This pup really turned out to be a hidden jem for me reminds me a lot of the bridge pup in the EBMM EVH guitars dimarzio claims the tone zone is the closest but this norton is way closer it is like a fred in that it feels lower output but has more of the punch and balls of the tone zone with...

Hi guys, I have my RGA121 up for sale. It's black, with a Seymour Duncan Custom bridge pickup, and a Dimarzio PAF Pro neck pickup. It plays great, sounds great, and is in great condition. It comes w/ the hardshell case as well. I'm selling it to fund a floyd rose style axe, I'm more...

ok so.... I think i already asked this question about pickups before, but here it is again. I done a bit more research and alottt of people are saying PAF Pro for the neck, but then there's people who say that the Norton is good too so.... 1. Which neck pickup Norton or PAF Pro?? 2. for the...

Hi guys, i've decided to move into musicman world. i'm here trying to sell my rg550bk its a 1994 model, old neck joint and it has dimarzio tonezone on bridge, fs-1 single, and paf pro neck. it's in player condition. there's an accident on the lower finish crack, i accidently dropped it due to...

As some of you may already know, the volume pot on my 3 month old RG1570MRB decided to seize up yesterday, and I don't feel like dealing with Ibanez to have them send me a new volume pot. So, I've decided to have a new pot installed as well as some new pickups. I'm planning on buying an Evo2 for...

...what would it be? What would it look like? Hardware? Colours? Photoshops are a must in this thread. Cheers.

I seriously want either green or pink humbuckers on my DY. :D But I actually love the stock pups, so can I just get a pup cover? Also, does anyone know of a vendor that we can buy the EXACT stock pickguard? I can tell its going to be scratched to hell after a couple of gigs, and make no...
