Pickup Height & Tone

Hello. I have an Ibanez RG1570 with dimarzio pickups, models aren't important I believe in this topic. My problem is, the middle pickup gets in the way of my picking. So I want to lower it all the...

Ahhh right, the first channel is the same. If I run that channel, I usually keep the gain knob around 1.5-2 and master about six. I use an Ibanez TS808hw to boost it for the sound you are describing,...

The preamp tubes made it more articulate, eliminated most fizz and made the top end not as overbearingly bright but more warm.

The JCA20h and JCA22 are two different beasts. IIRC the jca20h doesn't...

The volume is high enough. Nah, no eq pedal. I can get the sound I typically want without one. I just want it to be less fizzy and articulate.

I'd like to keep it under $50 if possible. Just looking for a matched pair that will get rid of the fizz and sound articulate.

Jet City JCA22h Power Tubes

I put 4x jj 12ax7s in v2-5 and a 803 in v1 for the preamp. Now it's time to upgrade the power tubes. I'm thinking about Mullard reissue el84s, anyone have experience with them or any other possible...

I believe most vintage reissues guitars are this, for a lot cheaper than the DG model. Could be wrong though, just something to look into.

Hardwire Supernatural. $180 comparable to strymon blue sky. Personally I haven't played the blue sky, but I'd assume it's better, but the price difference I'd say it's a worthy contender.

Ibanez S5470F Any Reason Not To?

Alright. I have an RG 1570 and don't like the tone of basswood really anymore, but everything else is fine. I did love the tone of the ICT700(iceman) that I had, but that has a much thicker body and...

Ibanez IC500 Question

Does anyone own one of these? The newer 2012/13 model. I'm curious because I had an ict700 and it had a bulky heel that came out to about 12th fret. Curious if these have them too.

With the 1570, especially if it's direct mount like mine. You'll have to wiggle around everything and it'll be a tight fit without modding. I'd recommend dimarzio dactivators. Never tried the...

I don't really understand what you're asking. But are you asking for a BFR guitar without the model/logo on the 12th fret? They don't sell that as far as I know, sorry.
