Are Ibanez hot pickups mainly used for Heavy Metal or can they also be used for Hard Rock too? Also does Hard Rock use the same amount of gain as Heavy Metal or does it use less?

It's all the same thing, try rolling off the volume control on your guitar to reduce the distortion, now play the riff to 'You really got got me', Van Halen or The Kinks? Only you can decide.
