chait dead eye.. more from u.. haha.. u got pickups rite? mayb some day u will recieve another deal.. hahaha...

i just cant find the right pick technique for fast at the same time clear shredding...

I say, a fine Ibanez you got there!

I agree with the others on the pickup change. About which pickup, it will be entirely up to you. There are many sound clips online.

Unless the trem is really getting in the way of your playability, just getting it blocked would be just fine. Cheapest solution, and you retain the Floyd Rose look.

SE Guitars can get your trem blocked for you if you wish, just PM me!

lol.. thx for offer.. i might change the pickups 1st..

Do update us on which pickup you bought!

lol.. if i buy it.. then ill update.. now juz hav to survey and look at the reviews of the pickups choices...

passive pickups are also shredder's main choice wut. infact more shredders use passive pickups. Normally the active pickups are famous among the riffers like slipknot, metallica, blablabla.

if u cant keep up with the picking, then its the picking technique ur doing. moderate pickups like dimarzio tone zones or duncan jb's are good enough for shreddings. if ur using the ibanez stock pickup, i think its a bit ugly sounding la cuz those pickups dont have lotta precission when ur picking, its all just muddy.

i'm currently using a duncan Invader SH-8 on my bridge and duncan Jazz SH-2n on my neck, ibanez S series. those pickups are good for riffing and also soloing. If u like pinch harmonics, i say go for the invaders man, its the most recommendable pickup for pinch harmonics in my opinion.

u try to listen to Roadrunner United - Dawn Of Golden Age, Roadrunner United - In The Fire.. that the sound i was looking for.. i already tried the dawn of golden age.. can hear it.. but still blurry and mixed up..

u listen to it.. and can u give me some advice for picking technique in order to make that sound...
