The Pickup Place / Re: Input

Depends on what tones you are looking for.
Dimarzios seem to work well with Ibanez RG's.
I like the:
Crunch Lab / Liquifire set
Air Zone / Paf Pro set
Fred / Paf Joe set
Gravity Storm Set
Have a Tone Zone and PAF PRO...Sound a little muddy,no saturation,and a little dull...like to brighten it up hair..and some sustain..

Thanks guys...
Stephan ...your right ...I didnt pot the p
u.instead I pulled the covers off and placed a small amount of silly putty between the p.u and covers..to stop any vibration and soldered back together..it did help alittle..and yes the bridge has a red wire that's grounded...I'm thinking of getting pre wired Gibson pot harness..see that works or just go everything again...

hello all...its probably been discussed but its past my bed time...so i figured i just ask...i own a 75 gibson les paul custom she plays great...but i hate playing it through my amp...humming ..i hate it...pots and pickups are original....id tried everything i think to get rid of the humming and feed back on the guitar...my other guitars dont have this issue..my amp is a 75 marshall super lead head modded by dave bray...i dont use any distortion pedals...im looking for pickups for this guitar..my taste of music is mostly 80s hard rock,metal...any suggestion would be great and thankyou

well..p.a.f...was what I expected because of my other usrg30s having them..humbucker from hell..was ok..might throw that one in my les paul for a try..the Dominion is wonderful something to it that makes it alive and attacking..this guitar sounds different ..more harmonics and warmth at times if that sounds right..
