Well I've finnally got all my problems with my ibanez s470 sorted out (Had some tuning issues) And form what people have been saying in reviews and stuff - is that the pickups are bad.

I think some of my others guitars have a better sound. But is it worth the 150 or so to change out the pickups or what?

I'm not going to get a new guitar for a while anyways. So I thought why not change the pickups. But I don't like wasting money.

So would you recommend doing it?
