Looking into getting a new bridge pickup installed in my Ibanez RG350m YE, the stock INF pickups are ok, but looking for something that wont get muddy with lower tunings (I'm in drop A), keep its clarity while I am using dumb amounts of gain, and doesnt cost an apendage. Any recommendations are appreciated!

Been checking out some Laces (Drop N Gain, Deathbuckers, etc.) anybody have any input?

I had a Jackson RR3 years ago with a SD JB in the bridge and that sounded pretty good, but seeing as how long ago that was, im not exactly sure how they would sound with my current setup.

I've also tried EMGs (81/85 setup) that i really liked in my Gibson Gothic Explorer. I would probably go that route seeing as how I DO like the sound of active pickups, yet I dont feel like spending the time or money have a hole cut into the back of my Ibanez.

I also tune in drop A and have these.

They do the trick.

I use drop and gain in bridge and neck pups. Fucking quality mate. The lows are heavy as fuck with no mud, unless I dial it in. The highjs cut through well and they sound real nice through the clean channel too.

+1 for LACE Drop & Gain

fuck batteries

I've heard nothing but good things about the Drop n' Gains. In my Flying V, I use a DiMarzio X2N, which really brings out the low end of that guitar. Huge like an original Xbox controller.

I use Seymour Duncan JB's i most of my guitars. I tune to C but tend to dial out a lot of the low end now.

I have a JB bridge in my fat necked Nunis right now and it is a great pickup!

I like the JB. But since changing the bridge pickup in my EC-1000 from the JB to a Duncan Distortion, I've been way happier. I often have that in dropped A#. It's a great articulate pickup.

drop and gains alright with standard tuning too? anyone tried the wino versions?
