[wangdexian]

Well, I think something along the lines of 60-SA-85... because I don't like the 81.
Anyway, welcome Charles! :wink:

[gizh]

[blahblah]

ooi u share the same name as me and possibly the same taste :twisted: i like my rg2120X...doesnt look too evil or rock-ish because of the wood and the finish.

i heard the name 'charles' is meant to be a bad thing... :lol:

 

[blahblah]

with so many kings and famous people with that name..its possibly a good thing :lol:

 

[ShredCow]

:twisted: Ibanez JEM 7VWH :twisted:

 

[Vaiyen]

stepping up on stage with that guitar carries its own expectations...the player gotta be pretty stunning. not any tom, dick and harry can carry it off I think.

 

[charlestheguitarist]

okay guys..thanks for your intro..but still anyone got good recommdations for some EMGs...?

 

[pooo]

Dual 85s

Add in the EMG Pi for out of phase versatility, DMSK for split coil tones, and an EXG to scoop the mids out if you dig those sorta tones :twisted:

 

[charlestheguitarist]

usually where would they put the battery box on an ibanez?

 

[subversion]

EDR470- floating vibrato version (Edge Pro II)

EDR170- non-floating vibrato version (SAT bridge unit)

hey bro, welcome aboard 8)

Ibanez has a guitar range which offers active pickups, co-designed with EMG- the EDR series. these guitars have been discontinued WEF 2004, but i do see them still in store, if you are keen. it's a 'proper' guitar to acquire if you are into active electronics as there is a dedicated battery compartment in the body cavity.

 

[spikes]

wow, it reminds me of a musicman...

 

[subversion]

the EDR is Ibanez's attempt to re-live the discontinued Radius model, one of which became Joe Satriani's signature model.

Ibanez 540R

 

[charlestheguitarist]

but normally where would the battery box be placed when installing active pups...

 

[pooo]

Most of the time people just put the battery in foam and dump it in the control cavity of the guitar. If there isn't space, then some people route wood out for the battery, but where that goes is dependant on personal preference

I would suggest u get some RG series axes to try out.. pickups can be upgraded.. they got good H-S-H config as well as body materials..
