title says it all. The ibanez website doesn't say if the stock powersound pups are ceramic or alnico 5/3 or whatever. And, i couldn't find a link to e-mail ibanez and ask them. So, anyone know what type of magent is used in them ? And, what SD pup sounds similar to them ? I like the tone from them, but want a pup that sounds similiar with more clarity. It's mostly the bridge pup that im wondering about.

I'm almost sure the powersounds are ceramics. AS to which Duncan sounds like them none really does. If you want more clarity with high output, I'd go with a Custom.

I disassembled both of my powersounds and found black magnets so that's ceramic. I noticed that Duncan magnets are slightly bigger.
I don't remember exactly how the powersounds sounded but I think the Custom will be a good choice.
