Title: Looking for BKP pickup for Mahogany Ibanez Prestige (death metal)
Post by: O731 on August 27, 2017, 04:58:12 PM

I asked around here in regards to an ash ibanez prestige a little bit ago and decided to get the C-pig. However, I decided to change my pre-order to this bad boy http://www.ibanezrules.com/new/fr6ucsbkf.htm This one has a mahogany body and I wanted to replace the aftermaths on these to something a little more for lead. I'm looking for something good for lead guitar for melodic death metal (Children of bodom, necrophagist, kalmah, etc.)

Would a C-pig still be a solid choice? I know the C-pig was darker than the painkiller which is why I opted for it in the ash body guitar, but maybe it might be a bit dark on mahogony. Maybe opt for the painkiller?

I'd try it when it arrives and see how you like it

The Cpig is not as hot at the myth goes. I use it in mahogany and still good for tech death, but bear in mind my guitar is a baritone 7 with stainless steel frets (add more trebble)

Please ignore this thread,  I opted out of the Mahogony and i'm going to get a basswood ibanez.
