My Ibanez RG has been Hot Rodded!

I've been wanting to change the pickups on my Ibanez RG (annoyingly called Ms Ibanez ;) ) for quite a while now.

I've been battling between Seymour Duncans VS EMGs for a while. Finally decided to bite the bullet and stopped by my local Guitar Center (didn't want to wait for it to ship) and got myself the Hot Rodded set (SH-2n and SH-4 humbuckers).

Man what a world of difference! My distortion is WAY more crunchier and everything sounds a LOT tighter. Metal Distortion = ROARING!

SH-2n sounds real tight and really pitchy. The SH-4 is a roaring thunderous high powered pickup. The hum canceling is also real good. Minimal resonant sounds.

I probably need to send this in for fine tuning though (no one to really teach me right now).
