I have a gift card to musicians friend and figured my Ibanez S Prestige should get some new pups but I have made some changes in my setup that bring on a few questions.
Since I've raised to 68 to 12 strings and lowered the tuning to B standard, the "g" or d string sound odd and muddy but the outer strings sound great. I like playing the bigger strings. So are there pickups designed for low tuning?
I like playing chunky prog rhythm to clean strummy chords and lead guitar clean and high gain.
The tremolo is very stable and stays tuned.
I have an 18v livewire's in my strat and I think they sound a bit bright but I'd be willing to make the mod to my ibanez if the humbuckers were toned down a bit.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys/gals!
