Pickup change

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi,

I'm currently playing with Ibanez SR505 with Bartolini MK1 pickups, but I want to improve my sound and one way to do that is to change pickups.
I'm looking for deep, mellow tone, so I really need some suggestions, what type of pickups should I look for or other ways to achieve my goal (preamps etc.).

Thanks!

See FAQ the Bass Mod link in the first paragraph of Dimento's Trouble Shooting Guide for the approach I've used.

This guy has a 6 string Ibanez with the same pickups as you. His tone is fantastic. What kind of amp do you have?
