rebel yell
it's not as hot and fat, but has a lot more midrange push
the nailbomb is more aggressive, but more hollow sounding on the mids

Its done on a fat amp and a fat sounding guitar. It might be bright in your ibanez, i'd go for a nailbomb.

really?  Nailbomb over RY in an Iby?  I have 2 "s" series, currently have Dimebuckers, they work well with the mahogany/maple/rosewood of the Sabers.   

Just got an A-Bomb in a strat with a Maple/Maple neck, and the sound is remarkably close to the Sabers I have, the Bomb really helped to dampen the brightness of the maple.  That pickup kills!
