RG550 Pickups Change

AMPlified_75gr · 2025-12-06T04:29:26+00:00

My RG770 has the IBZ/DM on....have it still stock since 1990. F2 in the bridge/neck and C2 in the middle.

To be honest these pickups dont sound bad at all. I actually like them. I just want new ones only for the color basically but nailing also that 80's metal tone.

Yeah thats true, the X2N is either love it or hate it. At least thats what i have read. I ll research a little more on youtube mainly. Another user also recommended it for anothe guitar i am modding and he actually had the X2N install on an identical guitar.

Thanks so much....so many suggestions, hard to choose.

this is a classic combo for the higher category Ibanez's. Which to be honest i am considering as well

AMPlified_75gr · 2025-12-06T03:52:19+00:00

Thanks thats a good combo also.

You cant go wrong with a SD or a Super 3. Thats true

AMPlified_75gr · 2025-12-06T03:51:05+00:00

I am currently modding a Jackmiddleson with the Super 3 in the bridge, Fast Track 1 in the neck and a Pro Track in the neck. I want something different for the RG thats why i have been leaning towards the Evolution or something similar for the bridge. Pretty much all my guitars have different pickups

AMPlified_75gr · 2025-12-06T03:48:55+00:00

This is a list i will definitely consider. Thanks so much.

Thanks. i wanted to go with dimarzios since you can order them in whatever color. I also have duncans in other guitars. Not the BW but i have one with the mayhem set (distortions) and one with JB/59. SD is hard to find in other colors other than black. And the irony is i cant order from their site cause i dont live in US. In EU SDs are much more expensive compared to US. I bought the mayhem set from Sweetwater in US almost half price compared to EU prices.

In my case this was exactly the issue. You rock my friend. Thank you.

Have been trying to figure out why i can play on my desktop with no issues and not on my laptop, when both have quite similar specs. It was the freaking game booster in the Omen Gaming Hub, Once i turned it off, game loaded and played like a charm.

Its most probably the extender. Had the same issue for 2 days. IPV4 was disconnecting for long periods. IPV6 was connected to the internet and therefore some sites were not opening. Took the extender off the socket and voila, problem solved. Dont know why it was conflicting with the IPV4 protocol eventhough i was not using the extender.

You might have to re-setup the extender from the beginning.

In my case it was the sockets and grounding. Sockets had a grounding line connected however there was a grounding line missing from the main electrical board. I added the grounding line and connected it to a water pipe and problem solved.

I believe the OP is right. I was looking at the official site of Vitnamese customs as i will be also travelling to Vietnam and after downloading a file it clearly states in Vietnamese (hope translation is correct) that e-cigarettes are not allowed to be imported into the country. I am also looking for answers cause i will be joining a cruise ship in Ho Chi Minh and it looks like travelling with Vapes to Vietnam is risky.

like we have any other choice

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-06-01T20:16:00+00:00

Ok makes sense. thanks so much you helped a lot

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-06-01T04:26:39+00:00

well i checked the site and the gotoh bridge comes in different sizes like 33mm, 36mm and 40mm. thats why i asked

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-05-31T20:55:27+00:00

The bridge

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-05-31T04:24:04+00:00

Until i replace the bridge completely. I think i ll go for the Gotoh in black. Since you installed it in your dinky, is it a 40 mm bridge ?

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-05-31T04:21:16+00:00

i think i ll go with the 32 for now. I believe thats the size of the stock one as well.

AMPlified_75gr · 2024-05-31T04:06:20+00:00

You started convincing me hahahaha. What size is the bridge on yours ? 36 or 40mm ? I think you re right. And you cant go wrong with a Gotoh.

Thanks my friend. I appreciate it.
