I've got a Nailbomb in my Explorer and it's fantastic.  Tim's other suggestion if I wanted something more vintage was a VHII.

Hmmm... you seem to know the BKP-range :-)

Can you describe the differences between:

Nailbomb

Holydiver

Painkiller

Thanks

Now I´ve been surfin´ this forum all day and I think I´m getting wiser.
The Painkiller is not an option anymore, I´m not to keen on cheramic.

And what I´ve read is the Nailbomb superb for Ibanez with basswood, right?

I am into Tony McAlpine, John Norum, George Lynch-material.
I´ve seen mr Vai live and it was totaly great, and what a sound! But... when I listen to G3 on youTube I more like Satriani´s tone rather than Vai´s. I think even his tone is a little to ice-picky (=Evolution´s)
I didn´t buy the Jem to be a Vai-copy, I bought it because it was beutiful to look at and play.

A also got a Ibanez 770 which is a great fastrunner as well as the Jem :-) And to be honest the original USA IBZ F2(?) sound really good in that guitar and with any equipment (the Evo´s is more "kinky" with the equipment.) But they are a little bit to muddy and "none-separated". In the neck there is also a F2 which is crazy for sweep-picking and fastruns but a little to much overall and to bassy. Otherwise its a goodpickup (I think Dimarzio made them back in the 80´s)

Sooo.. I think am heading for a set of Nailbombs.
