Er... i'm wondering how do you count how close you are to someone sound?
ok..thanks for all the advices....i cant afford all those jcm stuffz....but im not that rich....so that means i cant even get close to slash tone.. 
.. nvm....
my neck pickup really sux...can never provide a clean sound. any recommendations on a pickup that can provide clean sound?...my cuzzie recommended the EMG 60.... and he asked me to combo it wif the EMG 81 at the bridge...for distortion....is that a good combo? :?

SD alnico 2 pro, seth lovers model, Jazz model. All good for clean. I don't think the EMG will provide you a good clean.

I have a set of EMG-81 and 85 on my Ibanez.
It's a great combo, if you're going for metal that it.
Other than that, it's good for nothing else.
The 85 at the neck is really good for clean sounds. On the contary, the 81 is really terrible at cleans.
It has a really bassy bottom-end, the mid is excellent. What I don't like about the 81 is the high-end output, too trebly and hot.
Plus, EMGs are more expensive then the conventional passive pick-ups. And they need to change batteries every 4 months or so, apply that you always jack in your cable.
If you're going for a more 70's 80's rock tone, you couldn't go wrong with Seymour Duncans or D'Marzios.

Ibanez's clean isn't good?
Hmmm...... Frankly speaking, I prefer my Ibanez neck pick-up to my SD...
The middle-end Ibanez RG guitars has it's own V7/8 pick-ups wired with D'Marzios.
Used pick-ups? Wouldn't recommand it. You won't save much by getting used Seymour Duncans. It isn't economical.
I can elaborate on that if you want, I'm studying economics

non of which will sound like slash at all, without the right amp, right speaker cab, right pedals and lastly, the finger of slash. Getting close maybe, but will never.........
