wow..... sounds great Tony!!!
if i upgrade my neck pickup, it seems that that winding will be for me, and according to you the C-Warpig will suit me fine!
enjoy your pickups!

If metal is what you're after, the ceramic 'Pig is as metal as metal gets!
I actually just went home from work during my lunch break to fire up my Mesa/Boogie F-30 to hear this thing wide open. The only thing I added today was my Maxon OD-9 overdrive...I like the "bite" it adds to the bottom heavy Mesa. Anyway, the sheer power of this guitar through that amp is staggering...but I still couldn't help going to the clean channel and switching to the neck pickup tapped...I cannot stress how great this neck pickup is, especially tapped!
From everything I've read (and with my personal experience with my other two sets of BKP) I *expected* the ceramic Warpig to be devestating...and it is. It outpowers the EMG 81, EMG 85 and Dimebucker EASILY.
I did NOT expect the neck pickup to be this great clean and versatile! To be fair, this Ibanez is pretty unique sounding...it's 25.1 neck scale and wrap-around bridge give it a very unique "twang"...but the EMG 60A in the neck that was previously there did NOT bring out the true tone of this guitar like the Warpig custom neck.
