Just picked up an Ibanez SR3000e - have a question

[Pete Greaves]

So I just picked up an Ibanez SR3000e for $200. This is the one with the pickups stamped Bartolini (not Ibanez), the Vari-Mid III eq and the drop D tuner. My question is if anyone knows if the pickups in the SR5000 are the same Barts or not? I happen to have a set of those and I was wondering if they would be an upgrade or they essentially the same. I know both came with Custom Barts.

I believe they are the same barts. US Custom Made.

Just over 7 years ago, does the OP even still have the bass?

Good question. I'd hope so, they are good basses
