Hi,
I've had this guitar for about a month and it's mostly great. But after some comparison vids, it's clear why I don't just "quite" get on with the tone.
What I ordered (and are now delivered) are the "Saturday Night Specials" which are not as hot, still have the nice nickel covers, and seem to kinda chime a bit more. I'm neither a "classic rock" or a "metal" guy, so these seem to make sense. Worst case scenario, I exchange them within 21 days. I like the idea of having to add gain vs. them being too hot.
However, I saw this vid: Ibanez AZ & Seymour Duncan pickups comparison - YouTube with the original mindset that maybe custom ordering the "Pegasus" with the nickel would be the best way to go. But since it's an HH guitar, I became very unclear about what I wanted in the neck position, so here we are.
Just in case someone has some thoughts on this combo before I install them, I'd be curious to hear it.
