Title: New pups, advice please?
Post by: Ramram on February 05, 2008, 08:20:16 PM

Hey guys, I know you're probably tired of these "HELP ME PLZ" threads but bare with me. I was thinking of replacing the stock pickups that suck on my Ibanez IC400. Any advice?

I've been reading around and it seems alot of people think that the Cold Sweat is the shite for the neck.

I'm looking for a old Metallica kind of sound, and will be playing through a Peavey 6505+. Any ideas?

Miracle Man Bridge + Cold Sweat Neck, what do you think?

Cheers

Edit: Oh yea, anyone know what spacing to get for the Ic400?

Tune o matic, so probably narrow spacing. Just measure it if you're unsure.
